Moeen Ali believes former England coach Chris Silverwood will be keen to “prove a point” with his Sri Lanka side in Thursday’s World Cup clash in Bengaluru dota
Silverwood was England’s fast bowling coach they won the tournament in 2019 and expected to be the man in charge of the title defence when he was chosen to succeed Trevor Bayliss in the top job dota
But his reign came to an ignominious end when he was sacked after the 2021/22 Ashes debacle, with England subsequently opting to split the job dota between red and white-ball specialists dota
Silverwood made a quick return to international cricket with Sri Lanka and faces his old charges in a game that both nations need to win to maintain any realistic chance of reaching the knockout stages dota
England have already been bested by one of their own in India, with former batter Jonathan Trott guiding Afghanistan to a shock win in Delhi, and are aware of the extra layer of intrigue created by Silverwood’s appearance in the opposition dugout dota
“I’m sure he’s got that motivation to do well in this game, definitely,” said Moeen dota
“They’ve only won once, so they’ll want to get on a winning run as well and he’ll be thinking more about that and his own team dota
“But I’m sure deep down, like everybody else, he’ll be trying to prove a point or whatever it is and that will motivate him a little bit more dota
“He’s a good coach and a nice guy, and I enjoyed (working with) him dota
But he’s not the one going out to bat and bowl, it’s his team dota
He’ll be trying to get them ready dota
”I'm sure deep down, like everybody else, he'll be trying to prove a pointMoeen Ali on Chris SilverwoodMoeen is heading into the game with some some additional motivation of his own, having been confined to a watching brief since the opening match of the tournament dota
Despite being the squad’s nominated vice-captain, the 36-year-old was dropped after the nine-wicket thrashing by New Zealand and has now missed three in a row dota
Things have hardly improved in his absence and, after England’s heaviest ever ODI defeat at the hands of South Africa last time out, he is odds-on to return in a city he once called home during his IPL stint with Royal Challengers Bangalore dota
“It’s been very frustrating, obviously, because you want to play and make some sort of difference,” he said of his stint on the bench dota
“It’s difficult when you’re not winning and then when you’re not playing on top of that, it’s hard dota
I’m hoping to play and get a chance to perform dota
“It’s one of those grounds where scoring is quick and batting deep makes a big difference dota
If I get the nod, then I’m really looking forward to playing dota
I’ve played franchise cricket here and it’s a great place to play, a great venue dota
I’m be pretty excited dota
”England radically altered the balance of their side against the Proteas, banishing their core of all-rounders in favour of their top six batters and five specialist bowlers dota
A 229-run thrashing is likely to see that formula banished dota
Three changes are possible, with Reece Topley having flown home with a broken finger and Gus Atkinson and David Willey both vulnerable dota
Chris Woakes and Liam Livingstone would be favourites to return alongside Moeen dota
Topley’s injury replacement, Brydon Carse, has arrived in the country and trained for the first time on Wednesday afternoon dota
