Chris Woakes is “prepared”

Chris Woakes might not have been able to deliver at the international level yet but his domestic records and performances will vouch for his talent and consistency. He has performed fantastically in the domestic circuit where he scored 4899 runs and taken 424 wickets in 124 first class matches that he has played. Given a proper chance, he would be able to announce himself at the international level properly.

Woakes follows football as well and is a die-hard and avid follower of the Aston Villa football club. He even manages to keep up with his favourite club’s performance even while playing cricket. The Birmingham-born cricketer is always delighted to see the club perform even its losing and not performing well.

The 27-year-old will be seen playing against in the series against India and will hope to make a mark for himself.
