Ashwin's Fiery Response As Vaughan Brands Tam India 'Underachieving Side'

New Delhi: Veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has hit back at former England captain Michael Vaughan’s remark of labelling Team India as an “underachieving side”, saying such a comment ‘made him laugh’ considering how well India have done in world cricket, especially in the Test format.

Vaughan had made the comment during a panel discussion on FOX Cricket during the Australia vs Pakistan Test series in response to a question from former Australia batter Mark Waugh: “They haven’t won much in recent times. I think they are (an underachieving side). They don’t win anything. When was the last time they won something? With all the talent they have, all the skill-set (they should have achieved more.”

However, speaking on his YouTube channel, Ashwin issued a fiery response and pointed to India’s tremendous success in the Test format.
