Michael Vaughan comically trolled by Indian fans after backing The Hundred 2021

England's newest franchise-based cricket competition The Hundred has not had an overwhelming response from the fans. While a certain section of fans is optimistic about the format's success, several cricket enthusiasts have been sceptical regarding the new rules. Former England captain Michael Vaughan recently spoke in support of the upcoming league, however, Indian fans blasted the cricketer-turned-commentator for his opinion. 

Indian fans once again troll Michael Vaughan  

Michael Vaughan took to his Twitter account to express his support towards The Hundred 2021. He mentioned how, despite the newly introduced rules and regulations in the format, it still is a game of cricket. England's former skipper reckoned that there is nothing to not like about the competition, as prominent cricketers are slated to battle it out in the league. He also suggested that he does not understand the apprehensions and hatred around The Hundred. Minutes after the player's tweet, Indian fans heavily trolled Michael Vaughan for his comments. 

The ex-cricketer was vocal about his displeasure regarding the pitches used in Chennai during the first two Test matches of the India vs England series. The 46-year-old soon after surprisingly agreed with Rohit Sharma on his remarks regarding teams having the right to make the most of their home advantage. He also had to face the wrath of netizens back then for his U-turn.
