Michael Vaughan was in the news for teasing the Indian fans after Virat Kohli and men lost the match by 227 runs in the first Test match against England. Post this, he asked the fans, if the Indian team gifted Joe Root an autographed jersey to Joe Root on the occasion of his 100th Test match. This did not go down well with the fans and they responded to the tweet by trolling him brutally. Many of them even asked him to not beg for the autographed jersey. Michael Vaughan Taunts Indian Fans After Virat Kohli & Men Lose to England by 227 Runs, Asks if Joe Root Received an Autographed Jersey.
If one might recall, the Indian cricket team had gifted Nathan Lyon an autographed shirt after India won the four-game series against Australia. Nathan had even thanked the Indian team for the kind gesture. He took to social media and had lauded Ajinkya Rahane for his captaincy and also praised the Indian cricket team for the way they fought back to win the series. Now Nathan Lyon also asked if Joe Root received a jersey like Nathan Lyon. The fans were obviously angry with the comment and lashed out their fury on social media.

That's a bit nasty!
No. You guys have already looted us for 150 years and have killed numerous freedom fighters as well.
Return our Kohinoor first and then only we may think of gifting that t-shirt.
