Ashes 2017/18, 4th Test: Hits and misses

Enter captionT

Miss: Moeen Ali

<p>

England might not have won the fourth Ashes Test but they got a lot of things and right at the MCG and managed to salvage some pride after losing the series to Australia.

Even Alastair Cook and Stuart Broad managed to turn their fortunes around as the action shifted from Perth to Melbourne but Moeen Ali could not find any respite whatsoever.

Ali could not claim even a single Australian wicket at the MCG as he continued to remain totally ineffective as a bowler and a batsman too.

Ali had gone wicketless in the second Test at Adelaide as well, while he gave away 120 runs in 33 overs and claimed just one wicket in the third Test at WACA.

Riddled with injuries, Ali was dismissed for the 6th time by Nathan Lyon in the series and his problems against the short ball have been exposed by Australia's high-quality pace attack.
