All-rounder Moeen Ali has been named as England vice-captain for the fourth Test against India starting Thursday at the Oval.
Moeen’s elevation comes after Jos Buttler was given a paternity break due to the impending arrival of his second child.
The 34-year-old Moeen has so far played 63 Tests for England, scoring 2879 runs with five hundreds and also has 193 wickets to his credit with five five-wicket hauls with his off-breaks.
