England's first T20 World Cup 2024 clash washed away due to rain.
England lost their second match against Australia.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan lashed out at Jos Buttler-led side for their ordinary show in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 in the USA and West Indies. England entered the tournament as defending champions but the side were unable to secure a victory so far. Their first clash against Scotland washed out due to rain and they lost their second match against Australia on June 9 at Bridgetown's iconic Kensington Oval.
Vaughan reckoned that Jos Buttler-led England are making the same mistakes all over again in the World Cup and that is the main reason behind their downfall.
"We should not be surprised that England are in this mess. It has been far too cosy for too long in the white-ball set up. The team has been in decline for a while and is making the same mistakes all over again in selection and tactics. Looking from the outside, it seems to me the players are too powerful. It is all lovely and nice in the set-up, but I have never seen lovely and nice win World Cups," Vaughan wrote in his column for The Telegraph.

"In 2019 England won the World Cup playing fearless cricket but Eoin Morgan ran that team with an iron fist. Players knew where they stood and were wary of crossing him," Vaughan added.
"Three years ago England were the best white-ball team in the world and everyone else was trying to copy them. But you can't sit still in sport and England did that. Other teams copied them but brought more skill and discipline to their cricket. England have to be very careful. This team is clearly coming to the end and they will go through transition after this World Cup," Vaughan said.
England will now face Oman for the 28th match of the ongoing T20 World Cup on June 14 at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
