Born in Sharjah,[1] Ali made his senior debut for the UAE at the age of 16, playing a single match against Japan at the 1998 ACC Trophy in Nepal.[2] His next appearances for the team came at the 2001 ICC Trophy in Canada, where he played in seven of the UAE's ten matches.[3] He had little success, however, taking only two wickets.[4] At the 2002 ACC Trophy in Singapore, which the UAE won, Ali again had little part to play, going wicketless from his four matches.[2] Despite this, in 2004, he was selected for an Intercontinental Cup game against Nepal, which held first-class status. In the match, he did not bat, and bowled a total of nine overs without taking a wicket.[5] Ali's last appearances for the UAE came during the 2006–07 edition of the ACC Premier League, against Nepal and Malaysia.[2]
