Vaughan also believed the trio should have won more trophies in the format in their decade-long T20I career. Rohit guided India to its second T20I title after being part of the historic team that won the inaugural title in 2007 under MS Dhoni's leadership.

On the other hand, Kohli and Jadeja get their hands on the maiden T20 World Cup trophy after failing to do so in the 2014 final against Sri Lanka in Colombo.

"What a way to go out with a win in Barbados and a trophy in your hand. Now they can sit back and play Test cricket, a bit of one-day cricket and in the IPL like MS Dhoni, play on forever. In Indian cricket, they will be replaced as there's plenty of talent in that team," he added.
