The South African team lost to England in recently concluded T20I series. The hosts were completely outplayed by the visitors as they suffered a humiliating loss of 3-0 in 3 match series. Dawid Malan who is the number 1 batsman of T20\u2019s in the world played a fabulous innings on 99 in the final T20I. Dawid Malan was declared\u00a0 Man of the Match as well as the Man of the Series.<\/p>\n

Although while England was on the field in the first innings of the final T20I, a strange sign was seen in the dressing room of the English side. The England team\u2019s analyst Nathan Leamon was putting out sign boards such as \u20184E\u2019 and \u20182C\u2019. This was done to give out the message to the England skipper to go with particular bowler-batsman combination.<\/p>\n
Former English captain \u00a0Michael Vaughan immediately came out and criticized the move by the captain and the analyst. He said that if\u00a0 the skipper and the wicket keeper Jos Butler cannot take decision based on their natural instincts, it is a worrying sign. He added that if he was the England captain and this was proposed to him as atactic by the analyst, he would have immediately asked the management to remove him. Vaughan added that he is all in for innovative techniques to be used in the game, but using instructions coming directly from the dressing while they are on the field is a clear sign of lack of belief in the captain\u2019s instinct.<\/p>\n
The ECB in their official statement said that they consulted with the ICC before using this move which won\u2019t raise any suspicion of match fixing. They said that they did the move within ICC\u2019s law and didn\u2019t cheat in any way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
