• England all-rounder took five for 63 in fourth Test against India
• ‘We will have to fight hard to win series in Southampton’
Moeen Ali never lost faith in his ability to deliver at Test level, with his stunning return to the England team built on knowing that one bad winter did not make him a bad player.
Day two at the Ageas Bowl saw Moeen back to his best with the ball, ripping deliveries out of the footmarks to claim his fifth five-wicket haul and gutting the Indian middle order in a similar fashion to his career-best six for 53 on this ground four years ago.
