Jaffer’s remark implied that Vaughan’s name for restructuring Check cricket could be influenced by England‘s latest rise within the ICC World Check Championship rankings.

Nevertheless, following a string of victories in opposition to the West Indies and Sri Lanka, England have surged to fifth place within the WTC rankings.
Jaffer’s tweet advised that Vaughan’s sudden enthusiasm for a division system might be linked to England’s improved place, questioning why the previous cricketer didn’t advocate for such a change when England have been struggling. Jaffer’s response highlighted the notion that Vaughan’s timing could be conveniently aligned with England’s latest successes moderately than a constant, long-term imaginative and prescient for the sport.
