Moeen Ali had a brilliant career
37-year-old Moeen told in a recent interview that he was not included in the team for the upcoming series against Australia, and after that he decided to retire from the game. He said that I have played a lot of cricket for England and now it is time to make way for the new generation.

What did Moeen Ali say?
Expressing pride in his career, Moeen said that when you play for England for the first time, it is not known how many matches you will play. Playing almost 300 matches is a great achievement for me. I have always considered Test cricket the most important, but it was fun to play ODI and T20 cricket as well. Talking about his retirement decision, Moeen said that he knows he can still play, but the team needs new faces to move forward. It was the right time for him.
