In 90s, rival teams wanted to copy Australia, now it’s us: Moeen Ali | Cricket News – Times of India

ABU DHABI: Star all-rounder Moeen Ali sees nothing wrong in rival teams trying to "copy" the much-talked-about England template in white-ball cricket following their resounding success in global events. With their recent triumph in Australia, England became the first team to hold the ODI and T20 World Cup trophy in the same cycle. Eoin Morgan brought about a radical change in mindset and playing style following England's dismal campaign in the 2015 World Cup and Jos Buttler is carrying forward his legacy. An important member of the English white-ball team, Moeen feels it is natural for other teams to emulate their aggressive approach to the game. He also drew a parallel with the all- conquering Australian team of the 1990s and early 2000s. "The template was spoken about long ago. I feel...

MELBOURNE: England white-ball captain Jos Buttler is unfazed by their 3-0 whitewash in Australia and has urged the administrators to make sure bilateral cricket remains relevant. Nine days after beating Pakistan in the final of the T20 World Cup at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, the England one-day squad suffered a 221-run spanking on Tuesday as Australia swept the three-match series. The home side racked up 355-5 and then bundled England out for 142 in 31.4 overs in front of largely empty stand at the MCG in a lopsided contest. "It was always going to be a tough series for us, coming off the back of the World Cup," Buttler told the BBC after England's heaviest defeat in this format. "Any time England play Australia you want to put up good performances, but it's just been hard. "I'm not ...

England may not be at best for Australia ODIs: Jos Buttler

England captain Jos Buttler said his team may struggle to fire up for the ODI series against Australia after only a few days’ rest in the wake of their T20 World Cup triumph. England, who beat Pakistan in the final in Melbourne on Sunday, meet Australia at Adelaide Oval on Thursday in the first of three one-dayers, a series with nothing major at stake for either team. “It’s going to be a challenge,” white-ball skipper Buttler told reporters on Wednesday. “There’s no point saying all the right things, that we’ll be at our best.” England now hold both global limited-overs trophies, having won the 50-over World Cup on home soil in 2019, but their dominance does not guarantee enthusiasm for more cricket at the end of a long tour of Australia.
