He especially called out Michael Vaughan’s prediction of a 3-1 England win, reminding him how India’s young team proved those forecasts wrong.
“I feel there is a big win hidden for India here. Yes, the scoreline shows 2-2. Michael Vaughan and many others predicted that it would be 3-1 or 3-0. I would tell them to look towards their side a bit and where England cricket stands. Our warriors have shown the level of Indian cricket,” Harbhajan said on his YouTube channel.

Meanwhile, Harbhajan pointed out how this young Indian team had not been backed by many fans after the exit of senior players like Ravichandran Ashwin, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma. Many believed it would be difficult for this inexperienced team to deliver results. However, Shubman’s men proved them wrong by making history in England.
“Unbelievable Test match and the way India have played the series, they deserve praise. When the team went to England, many people said it was young and there were no seniors. But see how the young team created history,” said Harbhajan.
After leveling the series in England, India gained valuable points in the WTC points table and is currently placed above England, behind Australia and Sri Lanka. The team will now shift its focus to white-ball cricket in preparation for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025.
