Fans loudly protested against the team and club during Wednesday's 2-0 home defeat at the hands of Cremonese, after which Vieira was rumoured to be on his way out.
The two tailenders put on an unbroken stand of 30 for the ninth wicket to lift the home side to 226-8 in the 45th over after England had once again struggled with the bat to be dismissed for 222.
