The Indian cricket team has managed to confirm their place in the finals of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 after defeating England in the semi-finals which was played yesterday at Guyana National Stadium.
The former England cricketer Michael Vaughan who is known for his critical approach towards the Indian cricket team also congratulated India but in the process, he also indicated that the pitch favored the Indians more as Guyana pitch was a lower slower spinning pitch.
Here is what Michael Vaughan’s tweet read, “India thoroughly deserve to be in the final.. The best team in tournament so far.. Was always going to hard for England on this pitch.. India just so much better on lower slower spinning pitches.. #T20IWorldCup”

The Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin took the responsibility of giving a kickass reply to Michael Vaughan and he responded with a mathematical equation.
He tweeted, “∫ 1 dx = x + C. ∫ a dx = ax+ C. ∫ xn dx = ((xn+1)/(n+1))+C ; n≠1. Hence, India won.”
