‘Wouldn’t have been able to live with myself’: Injured Woakes reflects on courageous Day 5 effort at Oval

England all-rounder Chris Woakes, who suffered a shoulder dislocation on the first day of the fifth and final Test against India at the Oval and is currently waiting on the scans to ascertain the extent of the injury, reflected on the fifth day when he courageously swallowed the pain and came out to bat with his team needing 17 runs to win, with a wicket remaining. Woakes mentioned that he wouldn’t have been able to live with the fact that he didn’t try to go to the ground when his side was nine down and was in touching distance of a famous win.
