He has set \u201clittle targets\u201d for him that he aims to achieve in the upcoming series. Moen has 181 Test wickets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI still feel I\u2019ve got wickets and runs in me and match-winning performances within me. I have little targets I want to achieve first. I am not too far away from getting 200 wickets. I know people say they don\u2019t look at these things but it would be something I would look at. Then I would set another target after that,\u201d Moeen told ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>Virat Kohli played only one match in the last series as he took paternity leave to attend the birth of his first child. Kohli will be back as the captain. Moeen said it will tough for them to get Kohli out as he does not display \u201cany sort of weakness\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.ndtv.com\/india-vs-england-2020-21\/ind-vs-eng-world-class-virat-kohli-doesnt-have-any-sort-of-weakness-says-moeen-ali-2360666\"><br \/>\n<\/a>\u201cHow do we get him out? He\u2019s obviously an amazing player, world-class, he\u2019s very motivated to do well and I\u2019m sure he\u2019ll be even more motivated after they did well in Australia and he had to leave for the birth of his child. I don\u2019t know how we\u2019re going to get him out [specifically] because I don\u2019t think he has any sort of weakness but we have a good bowling attack, some pace in the line-up. He\u2019s a great guy and a good friend of mine \u2013 we don\u2019t talk too much about cricket. We do a little bit but not too much,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Moeen backed out from the series against Sri Lanka as he had tested positive for COVID-19. He joined his teammates on January 16 and arrived in Chennai with the squad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I\u2019m fine. Whether or not I get picked is another matter. Bessy and Leachy I thought did quite well in Sri Lanka and are coming off some good performances. In terms of being ready to play,\u00a0I think I\u2019ll be fine to play, I\u2019ll be ready. I\u2019ve waited long enough,\u201d Moeen said.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>England all-rounder Moeen Ali is optimistic about his \u201cmatch-winning performances\u201d.
