After being whitewashed in the Ashes, England has established their dominance as they have won the first three games of the 5-match ODI series. Lions wicketkeeper Jos Buttler starred in the 3rd ODI as he smashed a whirlwind ton to guide his team against Australia. He faced 83 balls and helped himself to six fours and four sixes in his match-winning 100-run knock.

Following Butler’s century, former England skipper Michael Vaughan showered praises on the gloveman and went on to compare him with legendary Indian wicket-keeper MS Dhoni. Vaughan had recently rated Buttler higher than Dhoni in one of his media interactions. Although it remains subjective, he cited that based on recent form, Buttler is undoubtedly a level ahead than his Indian counterpart.

Intrigued what you all think…You are allowed 1 of these 2 now in your team… Who you going for on present form !??

To clear any uncertainty, Michael even took to his Twitter handle and created a poll regarding the same. Much to his surprise, Dhoni won the polls by a huge margin, getting 61 percent of the total votes. However, it did not go down well with Vaughan, as he wrote, “Note to self …. Never run a poll asking people to choose an England player over an Indian Player on here … !!!!! “

Note to self …. Never run a poll asking people to choose an England player over an Indian Player on here … !!!!! #OnOn

Meanwhile, the fans were in no mood to let go the Ashes-winning skipper, as they slammed him for comparing Dhoni with Buttler. If the former England skipper had won over the Indian fans by lauding Virat Kohli and praising the Indian team on several occasions, he had also faced their ire for every time he criticised any Indian player or the Indian team.

And with this poll, Vaughan once again attracted the anger of the Indian fans who trolled him badly on the micro-blogging site. Some of the reactions were nothing short of hilarious.

Sir, how many centuries you have scored in your entire ODI career? #JustAsking

Even if Kohli himself took this poll, he'd vote Sachin. That's loyalty.
