Boycott on England: 'Moeen Ali did it'

Geoffrey Boycott says Moeen Ali was the catalyst behind England's Cricket World Cup win over Scotland.

Moeen's century led England to a 119-run victory over Scotland, and the side's first victory of the World Cup. Ali made 128 and shared 172 for the first wicket with the stuttering Ian Bell, who contributed 54.

Following heavy defeats against co-hosts Australia and New Zealand, the success in Christchurch provides England with a much-needed morale boost.
