Former England captain Michael Vaughan is known for his huge presence on social media platforms, especially among Indian cricket fans, who help him garner all the traction on the internet. In a recent tweet, Vaughan again kickstarted a conversation on social media saying that England is the best team in the world to watch. However, the 48-year-old commentator's post was soon met with an apt reply from former Australia cricketer Mark Waugh.
Waugh trolled Vaughan by reminding him that England is definitely in the top three for him but only behind India and Australia. "The best Test team in the world to watch .. ENGLAND .." Vaughan wrote on Twitter. "Definitely in the top 3 Vaughney behind Aust and India," Waugh wrote in the comment section of the post. It is important to note that Australia and India are the top two ranked Test sides in the world. India is also the number one ranked ODI and T20I side.
