After Kohli debate, Vaughan and Hafeez engage in social media clash over Stokes' World Cup century

Former England skipper Michael Vaughan was not much impressed with ex-Pakistan cricketer Mohammad Hafeez’s remarks on Virat Kohli’s playing style against South Africa at the World Cup. Hafeez felt that Kohli was a bit selfish in a bid to achieve his personal record against the Proteas. The comment did not go down well with Vaughan and the former England batter was once again involved in a social media argument with Hafeez. Tagging Vaughan in a post, Hafeez called England all-rounder Ben Stokes’ approach against the Netherlands as “selfless.” Stokes played a terrific knock of 108 against the Dutch cricket team at the World Cup on Wednesday. Reacting to Hafeez’s post, Vaughan wrote on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, “Great innings from Stokesy [Ben Stokes] Mohammad Hafeez. As was Virat’s on a difficult pitch in Kolkata against a better attack.”

Great innings from Stokesy @MHafeez22 .. As was Virats on a difficult pitch in Kolkata against a better attack ..
