Michael Vaughan names India’s most dangerous batter who can trouble England

Former England skipper Michael Vaughan has named one India batter who can be a thorn in his side. The 49-year-old also made massive statements on Ben Stokes and Joe Root ahead of the series.

Earlier today it was confirmed that Virat Kohli will not be part of the first Two Test matches. The former India skipper has pulled out due to personal issues in a statement by the Indian board.

Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam will host the first Two Tests. The next three games will be played in Rajkot and Ranchi with the final match in Dharamshala. It is a huge series for the two teams with huge World Test Championship points up for grabs.

Michael Vaughan names India’s most dangerous player –

According to Michael Vaughan, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is the most dangerous player. The 49-year-old has said that giving Rohit Sharma a chance can come back to haunt the visiting side.

While writing for the Telegraph newspaper Michael Vaughan revealed “You cannot give Rohit Sharma a sniff, especially as India’s batting is so deep. On these slow-ish wickets, even India’s lower order can be dangerous”

While writing about Ben Stokes, Michael Vaughan spoke about the importance of the all-rounder carries. “He may never play Test cricket at 100 percent fitness again but England need him at 90 percent after his operation because his batting and captaincy are so vital”

One man who will be under pressure to score runs is none other than Joe Root. The 33-year-old had scored a match-winning double ton during the Chennai Test in 2021. The 228-run knock helped England win the Test and take a 1-0 lead in the series.

Another hope of mine is that Joe Root does not get sucked into playing overly attacking cricket. I want him to play exactly as he did in 2021 when in Sri Lanka and India, he made three huge scores. That is what England need from arguably their greatest-ever player of spin.”

With the series set to begin in just a few days, the anticipation is running high. Team India and its fans will also get to know who is set to replace Virat Kohli. As per reports, Rajat Patidar and Sarfaraz Khan are in the running for the spot.
