'Door open' for Test return, says England's Moeen Ali
Moeen Ali said he is open to playing Test cricket again under new England coach Brendon McCullum. The 34-year-old quit the long format last year with 2,914 runs and 195 wickets from 64 Tests but still plays an important role in England's limited-overs sides. Moeen said McCullum, who was put in charge of the Test team last month, had sounded him out about a potential red-ball return. "Baz (McCullum) messaged me asking if I was 'in'," Moeen was quoted as saying by the Guardian newspaper after being awarded an OBE for his services to cricket.
