Michael Vaughan criticizes 'India-centric' scheduling after Afghanistan's ICC T20 World Cup semifinal loss
Former England captain Michael Vaughan criticized what he called "India-centric" scheduling for Afghanistan's disappointing performance in the ICC T20 World Cup semifinals against South Africa. Afghanistan, visibly inexperienced in big matches, collapsed to just 56 runs against South Africa's strong bowling attack. Vaughan pointed out that Afghanistan faced a flight delay which left them no time to practice upon arriving in Trinidad, a situation he deemed disrespectful to the players.
