• ‘There is no doubt … he’s shown his abilities in Tests and ODIs’
• Giles wary of pressures packed schedule puts on players
Ashley Giles has said there is “no doubt” England want Moeen Ali to make a Test comeback but is mindful that a packed international schedule is heaping more pressure on players than ever before.
Moeen, 32, has made himself unavailable for selection in the longer format since the end of last summer and turned down a berth on the Test leg of the South Africa tour that began this week with a two-day warm-up match in Benoni. Writing for the Guardian last week, Moeen said: “It just felt too soon.”
