England's Moeen Ali eye comeback for test against India

LONDON – England's Moeen Ali eyes comeback after having scored a double hundred and taken eight wickets for Worcestershire in the County Championship fixture against Yorkshire.

Moeen Ali is hoping to “put his name up there” for the Southampton Test against India.

A majestic 219 and match figures of 8/89 put Ali in contention for the fourth England-India Test as the hosts look to bounce back from the Trent Bridge defeat and seal the series.

Although Ali has been named in the squad for the Test, he isn’t taking anything for granted. “If I get the nod it will be great, if not then not a problem. I’m just trying to stay in the present,” Ali told *Sky Sports. *“I’m playing well and I just want to keep up the form with Worcestershire and hopefully with England as well.

“I’m just trying to do my best, put my name up there again and see what happens.”
