'Cheap' Test wins against India on green pitches won't help England in Ashes: Michael Vaughan

Michael Vaughan has pointed out at England's "tactical" error during the ongoing Test series versus New Zealand and said that the hosts should not play on green pitches against India.

Former captain Michael Vaughan has pointed out at England's "tactical" errors in the ongoing series against New Zealand and said that "cheap Test wins" against India on green pitches will not help the hosts in their preparations for the Ashes. Vaughan said England committed a mistake by not picking a specialist spinner in the playing eleven for the two Tests against New Zealand. "They got lucky at Lord’s because it rained. But to make the same mistake two weeks in a row that is a glaring tactical error. The wicket was not gripping and offering a lot of turn, but you need a variation when it is hot and dry at Edgbaston," Vaughan told The Telegraph.
