Former England captain Michael Vaughan believes Pep Guardiola has emerged as the most extraordinary sporting leader in the last 15 years, and Ben Stokes should adopt the Manchester City manager's mentality to ensure players never lose their way in the team. Don't be careless about the location. Vaughan's comments came in the context of England's cricketing perspective under coach Brendon McCullum having an adverse effect during the recent tour of India.
England have already won the series 3-1 by winning the first test in Hyderabad. Vaughan raised questions on the England batsmen and demanded more accountability from them. "I often refer to Pep Guardiola's mentality. In my view, he is the best game leader of this generation, the best in the last 15 years. He never lets his players feel comfortable. He always has them ready, And they all know nothing is guaranteed," he wrote in a column for the Daily Telegraph.
"If everyone behaves like a great leader like Pep, is it right for an England cricket team that is respectable but is trying to get to the next level as smoothly as it seems? One of the reasons for this tour The entire batting lineup has been revealed within the week, and the next game is already under scrutiny. This will change as Harry Brook will be back after this tour. He will have to bat at No. 5 as he has to bat with Joe Root. Must be the backbone of the batting. Does this mean an England statement is forthcoming?" Vaughan raised questions on England's selection policy and said that despite losing the series, there is a lot at stake for the visiting team in the final Test starting from March 7 in Dharamsala.
"Consistency in selection is a good balance for the team's performance. It's OK to make people feel comfortable, and England have generally performed well with the bat over the last two years. However, there comes a time when your batting needs to be The highest price has to be paid." Chain; You can't send the same people out there every week,” he wrote.
"While it is disappointing to lose a series with a game remaining, the end in Dharamsala is much more disappointing. There is a big difference between losing a series 3-2 and 4-1. Losing 3-2 shows that England are I was quite right.” The series, and two wins in India is an achievement."
Vaughan believes that defeat in Dharamsala will be disappointing for England. He once again criticized England's batting approach. "India have not lost two matches in a series at home since 2012, while they have won 17 consecutive series. Ending a disappointing winter with a 4-1 result would be very disappointing, given the defeats in both white-ball series. Together in the Caribbean and even in the Under-19 World Cup,” he wrote.
"It's a big week for many of the England batsmen. When we think of this England team, we think of their brilliantly dynamic batting. But when you look at what they have done in each of their last three series, Nobody wins, so it depends on the batting." He has written. "There's never been much scrutiny or noise around England's batsmen. Even last week I laughed. They had a big defeat in Ranchi because they didn't bat well, but a lot of fingers were pointed at bowler Ollie Robinson, who played crucial wickets. has contributed." half century!"
He wrote, "He looked quite sloppy with the ball and dropped a catch, but I thought it was a shame that he became the scapegoat. It's a classic case of 'batsman versus bowler'."

Vaughan believes that there should be continuity in the batting order when it comes to team selection. He wrote, "Complacency can be harmful. As a management team, the way you approach the selection of batsmen and bowlers is markedly different. Fast bowlers, in particular, are out of the game. and they are rotated properly to keep them safe."
"With the batsmen, you want consistency. When you play like England do, support is essential. Aggressive, expansive cricket means mistakes will be made. Players have the confidence to take risky shots without the fear of being replaced immediately." It's good, and as a captain, I always prefer to give a player an extra game rather than one less."

He also criticized McCullum and Stokes for their attitude. "However, I wonder if England's system gets too much support. Since Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum took over, only one batsman has been out, and even that was the worst collapse you've ever seen." "England have inherited Alex Lees. Lee made a dent in the previous regime, but he always had his eye on opening up with Jack Crawley, so he moved Lees on at the end of his first summer," he wrote.

"In the end, for any sports team on the road to greatness, you need a moment, a turning point, where every player realizes, 'Wow, maybe I'm not just a piece of furniture.' As soon as people think they're part of the furniture it makes it a little more comfortable," Vaughn concludes.
