Michael Vaughan ACCUSES ICC of Favouring Rohit Sharma’s Team India at T20 WC 2024
Guyana: Time and again, the International Cricket Council has been accused of favouring the Indian cricket team. But is that true? We could have a divided house on this, but former England captain Michael Vaughan seconds the belief. Calling it to be ‘unfair’ for the others, Vaughan reckoned ICC has planned the whole event to favour India.
“Surely this Semi should have been the Guyana one .. but because the whole event is geared towards India it’s so unfair on others ..” Vaughan tweeted during the South Africa-Afghanistan semi-final.

He has also pointed out that how India have not played a single day-night game. This was done to suit the Indian timings and viewership.
