Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team defeated Jos Buttler's England by 68 runs in the second semi-final to seal their spot in the Final of the ongoing edition of the T20 World Cup 2024 at the Providence Stadium in Guyana, on June 27 (Thursday). After the big win of the Men in Blue, former English captain Michael Vaughan made remarks that had England competed in Trinidad, they would have won the semis and that Guyana has been a great venue pick for India. However, these remarks did not sit right with former Indian player Harbhajan Singh, who slammed Vaughan and questioned how that venue supported India.
