India vs England: Shane Warne reminds Michael Vaughan how no one bothered about pitch when hosts were losing

Firstpost  

Chennai: “No one said a word about the pitch when India had no chance”: With these words spin legend Shane Warne on Sunday silenced former England captain Michael Vaughan who had slammed the surface used for the second Test at Chepauk. Not making any excuses as India have been better but this isn’t a Test Match 5 day prepared Pitch …,” Vaughan tweeted. The last few days of the 1st test, the wicket started exploding & no one said a word about the pitch when India had no chance. But this is excessive & in favour of the ball.” Earlier, Vaughan, who is quite active on social media, had said, “It didn’t do anywhere near as much for 2 sessions … Spun but not like what it’s doing now … India would have drawn the first Test if they had batted anything like in the 1st innings … This isn’t a good Test match pitch.” On his part, Warne reiterated that India played better on the first two days.
