Ex-Captain Warns Stokes & Co After 'Lottery' Win; Sydney Test Crucial for Management

  • England secured a rare two-day victory in the 4th Test at MCG, their first in Australia since 2011.
  • Former captain Michael Vaughan called the win a "lottery," stating it wasn't a "proper game of Test match cricket."
  • Josh Tongue starred for England with figures of 5-45 and 2-44, a historic Boxing Day performance.
  • Vaughan warned Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum that a strong showing in Sydney is vital to avoid "honest conversations" about their future.
  • He urged England to accept past mistakes and avoid frequent changes, emphasizing maturity.

Why It Matters: Vaughan warns England's "lottery" win at MCG isn't enough; Sydney Test crucial for management's future.
