England's Moeen Ali shelves his doosra in fear of attracting a ban from international cricket "There was a period when off spinners felt they needed a doosra because so you have people with different actions because of that," said Moeen. But seeing Pakistan banning 16 players with actions who bowl the doosra is a bit sad because it is a great skill. England fly to Sri Lanka on Sunday for a seven match ODI series where Moeen will be looking to establish his place and role in the side after moving up and down the batting order, and in and out of the team, last summer. Overall it was a successful summer for Moeen with 19 wickets against India, although a vulnerability batting against the short ball will have been noted by Australia. The biggest disappointment was being loudly booed by British Asians at Edgbaston in his home city of Birmingham during a tense Twenty20 match against India. It hurt Moeen and his family, who are big figures in Asian cricket in a city where his father Munir runs a cricket academy funded by himself and does not charge youngsters from deprived backgrounds. It proved how much work is still to be done to integrate second or third generation British Asians into English cricket. It was disappointing. I was at home. I live 10 mins away from the ground and I was getting booed by people I feel like I am representing which is a big shame," he said. People have a right to support who they want but I am hoping they or their kids in the future become England fans. It is now about players like myself and Ravi [Bopara] getting out there and telling people we are playing for England and it is our dream. I think sometimes, especially in Asian homes, it is about where we came from but it should also be about where you live and where you were born. It made me realise there is a lot of work that needs to be done to really promote and get people's minds changed in terms of supporting England. But a positive may come out of it because I have had a lot of Indian friends coming up and apologising and saying they are really behind me and England. I know it was a negative thing but perhaps a positive could come out of it and people have realised they are English, they were born in England and will support England.
