The former England captain took to Twitter to question why Melbourne’s Docklands Stadium, which has a roof, wasn’t used over iconic MCG, knowing that rain could affect the game.
“Rainy season in Australia .. Stadium in Melbourne with roof on .. !!!!! Wouldn’t it have been sensible to use it ??? #JustSaying #ICCT20WorldCup2022,” tweeted Vaughan.

The 47-year-old retired cricketer further wondered why the entire of the stadium wasn’t covered for the last two days, a practice prevalent in Sri Lanka and allows them to get back to play despite heavy thunderstorm.

“Can I also ask why in Sri Lanka where they get huge thunder storms they cover all the ground & get play back on quickly … Why hasn’t the MCG been totally covered for the last 2 days ????? #JustAsking #ICCT20WorldCup2022,” tweeted Vaughan.
