Before the Ashes series, Michael Vaughan, under the shadow of fear, said that we too could have been on Bondi Beach, know how our lives were saved.
News India Live, Digital Desk: Right now the eyes of the entire cricket world are fixed on the Ashes Series and Australia. Michael Vaughan is also present there for his commentary duties. But who knew that Vaughan, who had gone to talk about cricket, would have to pray for the safety of his life? The news is coming that a terrible shooting incident has taken place in the famous Bondi Beach area of Sydney. During this time Michael Vaughan was just a few steps away from there. The relief is that he is completely safe, but his experience is heart-wrenching. “Those 90 minutes of fear…” While narrating his story, Vaughn said that he and his companions were having dinner in a restaurant, when suddenly there was a stampede. People were running here and there to save their lives. Describing his condition on social media, Vaughan said, “Being locked inside the restaurant in Bondi and not knowing what was happening outside… it was very scary.” The hotel staff immediately showed understanding and pulled down the shutters and closed the door. The breathing of everyone inside was halted. Vaughan said he heard sirens and screaming, and for a moment he thought it might be the end. “We were lucky we weren’t on the beach,” Michael Vaughan said in a chilling statement. He said, “We probably would have been walking on the beach at that time if we had not stopped for dinner.” Imagine, if he had been there he could have become the target of those bullets. Perhaps this is what is called luck. He also told that he was waiting for his niece who was going to meet him after some time. It was fortunate that she reached them safely. Salute to the bravehearts. After this horrifying experience, Vaughan wholeheartedly thanked the Sydney Police and Emergency Services. He also prayed for those who were injured in this attack. He said, “I have come home safely, but my heart is still beating strongly. Life is very precious.” For Vaughan, who has faced big bowlers on the cricket field, this was the biggest bouncer in real life, which he ducked safely. We hope that he will soon come out of this shock and give us his excellent commentary in the Ashes.
