Moores claims 'no regrets' over returning as England coach despite squad's struggling WC campaign

England cricket team coach Peter Moores has claimed that he has no regrets over returning as the team's coach for a second time and insisted that time would tell when it comes to coaching, despite the squad's dismal run in the World Cup so far.

Moores would almost complete an year since Paul Downton announced the shocking return of the coach after he was sacked from the same in 2009.

And in that time Moores has overseen some recovery in Test cricket, but instead of progress in ODIs it has been a winter of discontent thus far for England, The Mirror reported.

Moores said that he has no regrets at all, adding that he believes time tells when it comes to coaching, and insisted that he would love to say things change straight away, but they don't.

The coach said that sometimes one gets some bonuses, like the emergence of someone like Moeen Ali over the last nine, ten months is exciting, and watching Joe Root come in and really starting to grow as a player.

But, Moores added that there is work to be done certainly on things outside of them on how they work with their younger ODI players and how they prepare people to go in to play the right style of cricket.

Moores said that it's a longer term thing than just now, so he insisted that most of the time coaching one gets judged overtime and what one ends up leaving behind as well as what one does there and now.

Moores insisted that he came in because he felt he could make a difference, adding that they know certainly the One Day format of the game is an area they would be behind in, but insisted that he has no regrets taking on the challenge.
