Moeen Ali in Video conference:
Talking at a video briefing with reporters, Ali claimed that Kohli doesn’t even have a weakness and that after missing Australia Tests, he will be inspired to make big runs.
How are we going to get him out? He’s undoubtedly an outstanding player, world-class, he’s really motivated to do well, especially after they did well in Australia, I’m sure he’ll be much more motivated, and also, he had to leave for the birth of his baby. During a video briefing, Moeen informed reporters.
“I don’t know what we’re going to take him out since I don’t think he would have any kind of weakness, but we do have a strong bowling attack several paces in the line-up,” he said.
“He’s a great man as well as a very good friend of mine — we don’t speak too much regarding cricket. We maybe do some bit but not too much.
Further, Moeen stated during the video conference:
India and England should also be playing 3 ODIs and five T20Is in addition to the four-match Test series.
Moeen says his greatest motivation is to play test match cricket and has “little targets” that he wants to accomplish in the coming series.
If I get selected or not is another issue… I think I’ll be good at playing. I’ll be set, in terms of being prepared to play. I have been waiting long enough,’ he said.
I do believe that I have wickets as well as runs and match-winning results inside of me. I have small goals that I would like to accomplish first. I’m not too far from earning 200 wickets.
“I know people will claim they don’t focus on those things, and it would be something I might look at. Then I could set another target afterwards,” he signed off.
