The ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy is India’s 336-run win over England in Edgbaston in the second Test, but Michael is refusing to return. Even after the victory of India’s biggest distant Test match, Michael Vaughan has supported his bold 3–1 prediction in favor of England in the ongoing five-match Test series.
The Indian cricket team led by Shubman Gill gave back their five wickets for England in the first Test for script history in Edgbaston. Gill’s smart leadership, with two centuries and then the sky deep and Mohammad Sirraj, gave England a major blow to England, which used to present very little to the bowlers in Edgbaston in the second Test.
Michael Vaughan is firm on India’s prediction despite India’s historic Edgbaston Test win
The unilateral demolition of India has shocked the world of cricket, but Vauan is doubled on its prediction. The former England captain is still confident that Ben Stokes and his team may beat the Indian team with a difference of 3–1 in the five-match Test series.

The renowned commentator believes that Shubman Gill and his team could not win another match in the ongoing Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, which England supported to win at least two of the remaining three matches to lift the trophy at home with a difference of 3–1.
After the Edgbaston Test, Michael Vaughan posted on his X (East Twitter): “India has been very good this week … excellent performance … My prediction is still alive … 3-1 England … #ENGVSIND”

Michael Vaughan called England’s perspective a slam, India exposed its old flaws in Edgbaston
Meanwhile, Vauan criticized the England cricket team, which returned to her old habits after her huge defeat in India in Edgbaston. He said that after a smart win in Headingly, England feel that he has got a balance in his aggressive style.
Vaughan wrote in his column for The Telegraph: “This team has given us great pleasure in the last three years, and they can get great things in the next six months. After the headingley, it seemed as if they had improved, and we called it a buzzball with mind.”

The former captain feels that England ignored the role of fate in their headingley win, where the poor catching India helped him gain control. The British also admitted that India dominates England throughout the second test.
England is fully inscribed by India: Michael Vaughan
He said, “This week, they came back to their bad old methods. If we are honest, England is fully inscribed this week. Apart from the four hours of the third day, where Harry Brook and Jamie Smith batted beautifully, they have completely dominated India.”
Finally, Vaughan expressed concern over the England’s mentality, saying that his victory in the first Test may have misled the hosts against India. He believes that he reiterated the same strategy in Edgbaston and was badly withdrawn against a major Indian side led by Shubman Gill.
Von signed, saying, “This was a demonstration that worried me a lot. I am afraid of how he used the first match as a complete proof to play Test cricket. He showed a lot of skills in that victory, but it included a lot of luck. They turned here and felt that they should do everything in the same way, and it had backfired.”
