Former England captain Michael Vaughan has criticized Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) players for their lack of sportsmanship towards MS Dhoni after their thrilling win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Vaughan expressed his disappointment, stating that the RCB players should have shown more respect to the legendary cricketer, especially considering that it could have been his final IPL appearance.
