Former England cricketer Moeen Ali has showered his displeasure on dreading of ODI format which provides no competition to the bowlers the set of rules have complementing to batsman which is killing the format completely. Moeen Ali has played 138 ODI games for England where he has scored 2355 runs and taken 111 wickets. In 2019 world cup he gave his contribution in their maiden truimph. 

He had an extensive career in test too where he has played 68 tests scoring 3000 runs and taking 200 wickets. He has been on the adjacent player to England who fitted in every department starting his career as opener and one down batsman later becoming an great finisher to the team. Moeen believes that the contenst between bat and ball should be equal, not to favor only one set of the department.

Which increases the gaps easily, the other reason is that usage of two balls earlier the format was played with new ball, Now the arrival of new ball has just killed the bowlers and their interpretation to the game. Use of salaiva is ban from it, it just shows that bowlers have nothing to do they just have to come and bowl and get smashed. This is what the scenario is, what sought of rule is this how would a bowler would create a pressure with limited fielders outside the circle. 

Players Perfering T20 Leagues

The batters are avereaging 60+ ,  if a bowler bowls to a batsman having 4 players outside the circle he just reverse sweep it and gets a boundary now what else the bowler can do. Now coming to the new ball its just insane already a hard ball takes time to soften and due to softening it gets reversed. You have killed that one too by adding a new ball the idea of that was to keep the swimg of the ball alive but it dismantles the corrosion of reverse swing which was bowlers lethal weapon.
