Top 5 performers from England vs Pakistan ODI series

Chris Woakes

In a series that was dominated by the bat, there was one bowler who stood like a fish out of water. And there was no surprise that that bowler turned out to be the same one who is having an unforgettable series and year so far. Chris Woakes finished with more wickets than anyone else in the series but it was his control with the new ball that was more impressive.

While other bowlers were getting belted around the park, Woakes always found a way to not just keep the runs down but also pick up crucial wickets. So it should come as little surprise that he is quickly start to establish himself as a key member of this rejuvenated English limited-overs side.

Capable of swinging with the new ball and nailing his yorkers at the death, the 27-year-old is the quintessential limited-overs bowler that every side wants in their arsenal. Thankfully for England they have him and will be hoping that he improves on his tally of wickets as the year progresses.
