#4 Moeen Ali just can't get over his nightmare
Having walked out to bat first up on day 5, replacing a dehydrated Joe Root, Moeen Ali knew his job was to stonewall with Bairstow. He did that for 43 balls before Nathan Lyon, his nemesis, came around the wicket to trap him in front with a straighter ball.
Ali would be kicking himself for getting out to Lyon yet another time, his seventh in the series in nine attempts. The stat shows the kind of dominance his opposite number has had on him in this Test series. Ali hasn't bowled particularly well either and the series marks a new low for the England all-rounder.
