As Pakistan's national cricket team bid farewell to the World Cup, Michael Vaughan has fired a fresh broadside at Pakistan former all-rounder Mohammad Hafeez.
Taking to X (formerly known as Twitter), Michael Vaughan expressed his thoughts on Pakistan's batting performance, suggesting that the batsmen could benefit from adopting a more selfish approach akin to that of Indian cricketer Virat Kohli. Vaughan's comment comes in the aftermath of Pakistan's elimination from the World Cup, extinguishing their hopes of qualifying for the semi-finals.
Vaughan's tweet, which reads, "Maybe Pakistani batters need to be a bit more selfish like Virat. @MHafeez22,'' has ignited discussions on the contrasting styles of play and strategic decisions among cricket enthusiasts and analysts.

– Michael Vaughan all praise for England's white-ball team –
Former English cricketer Michael Vaughan has lauded the Jos Buttler-led England team as a source of inspiration for how the game should be played.
Vaughan expressed his sentiments during England's match against Pakistan, the 44th encounter of the World Cup, sharing his thoughts on X (formerly known as Twitter).
In his tweet, Vaughan acknowledged that the England white-ball 50-over team may not have had the most successful World Cup, but they have served as an inspiration in showcasing the essence of the game. He commended the team's approach to cricket, emphasising that while it might be the last time we see many of these players on the field together, they are leaving a lasting impression with their spirited performances.
"This England white-ball 50-over team hasn’t had the best World Cup, but they have been an inspiration for how the game should be played. We might not get to see many of them play together again, so delighted they look like they are going out with a bang," commented Michael Vaughan.
