Veteran England all-rounder Moeen Ali has recently announced his retirement from the Test cricket with immediate effect. However, he is likely to return to the action in the longer format as well. Notably, he has been one of the key players for the national team with his brilliant all-round skills across formats of the game. The veteran bowler was nearing the 200-wickets mark as he has taken 194 wickets as well.

Meanwhile, the new head coach of England, Brendon Mccullum has requested Moeen Ali to recall the decision and now several media reports have suggested that Ali is now set to return to the test team as well. Meanwhile, a picture surfaced on social media where it can be seen that the Indian wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant had liked an Instagram post from his official handle referring to Moeen Ali making a return in the longer format as well.

While it went viral in no time, fans also mentioned that Rishabh Pant has been considered an attacking batter, especially against the spinners and in particular, the ‘bald’ spinners as well. The left-hander batter has dominated some of the ‘bald’ spinners in test cricket – Nathan Lyon, Moeen Ali, and Jack Leach are among them as well.

“A bald spinner wants to play Test cricket, there is nothing in this world that Rishabh Pant likes more than that.” wrote a Twitter user as well.
