Moeen Ali has not been in England jersey for a long time. It has even been reported that there is no possibility of him getting a chance in the team. All in all, the English all-rounder said goodbye to international cricket. He will not be seen in the jersey of the national team. Moin confirmed this in a statement.
A few days ago, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced the team for the ODI and T20 series against Australia. Moeen did not get a place in this team. Moeen has been indicated to retire by the ECB. So this all-rounder did not delay.
“I am 37,” Moeen told the English Daily Mail. I did not get a place in the team to tour Australia this month. I have played many matches for England. Now it’s time for the next generation. That too has already been explained to me. I also thought it was the right time. I also said goodbye.’
Moeen had already retired from Test cricket. He was playing only ODI and T20. This cricketer has played a total of 298 international matches for England. Among them are 68 Tests, 138 ODIs and 92 T20Is. He scored 6 thousand 678 runs in all formats with 28 half centuries and 8 centuries. He took 366 wickets with the ball.
The semi-final loss against India in the last Twenty20 World Cup was his last match for England. Despite saying goodbye to international cricket, Moeen will continue with franchise cricket. Even after retiring from all types of cricket, he wants to stay with cricket, he wants to make his name in the coaching profession.
Moeen said, ‘Want to continue franchise cricket, still love the sport. I want to come to coaching. Can learn a lot from England coach Brendan McCullum. I hope everyone will recognize me as a free spirited person. Played some good shots in my career, some bad, hope people enjoy my game.’
