England's off-spinning all-rounder, Moeen Ali has been recalled to the Test squad for the second of the five-match series against India, starting at the Lord's in London on Thursday, August 12. Moeen, who last played a Test match in February against this very opposition in Chennai, will return to the side following another failure from the top-order in the Trent Bridge Test. According to the Guardian, Nottinghamshire opening batsman Haseeb Hameed too may return along with Moeen for the balance of the side as England played four seamers, including Sam Curran and no spinner in the first Test. India needed 157 runs with 9 wickets in the tank to win the match on the final day but relentless rains led to a washout and the game ended in a draw. England squad for Lord's Test: Joe Root(c), Rory Burns, Dom Sibley, Zak Crawley, Haseeb Hameed, Dan Lawrence, Jonny Bairstow, Ollie Pope, Jos Buttler(w), Sam Curran, Moeen Ali, Craig Overton, Ollie Robinson, Dom Bess, Stuart Broad, James Anderson, Jack Leach, Mark Wood
