Will Chris Woakes Come In To Bat On Day 5 Of Oval Test? Joe Root Gives Big Update
Last Updated: England's Joe Root has lauded Chris Woakes' dedication despite injury, comparing him to India's Rishabh Pant. Ace England batter Joe Root has said that, as everyone saw India vice-captain Rishabh Pant coming in to bat during the fourth Test despite fracturing his toe, Chris Woakes is also ready to put his body on the line for the team, although he is in immense pain. Woakes had to leave the field on Thursday after landing on his left shoulder while saving a ball smacked by Karun Nair at long-off late during Day 1 of the game. Woakes looked in visible pain as he walked off the field with his left arm wrapped in his sweater. 'Chris Woakes is in a huge amount of pain. We have seen this series, Rishabh Pant batting with a broken foot, Woakes is ready to put his body on the line for England," Root said while speaking at the end of the day's play on Sunday, August 3. At the end of the day, England needed 35 runs to win and India needed three wickets, but if Woakes comes in to bat on Monday, India would need four wickets. 'England seamer Chris Woakes will continue to be monitored throughout the remainder of the Rothesay Fifth Test at The Kia Oval, following a left shoulder injury sustained on day one of the match against India," the ECB had said in a statement on Friday. 'At this stage, the injury has ruled him out of any further participation in the Test. A further assessment will be conducted after the series," the ECB added. Woakes bowled 14 overs on Day 1, picking up the crucial wicket of KL Rahul and conceding 46 runs. Woakes' injury has added to the woes of England, who are missing multiple key cricketers, including skipper Ben Stokes. Gus Atkinson picked up two wickets from his 19 overs on Day 1 and seemed confident to take up the responsibility in Woakes' absence. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Oval Test: India bowled out for 224 in 1st innings against England
LONDON: Pacer Gus Atkinson grabbed five wickets as India collapsed on the second day morning of the fifth and final Test against England to be bowled out for 224 in their first innings, here on Friday. The overnight batters Karun Nair (57) and Washington Sundar (26) fell in the first 20 minutes of play, which exposed the frail tail of the Indian team, which once again fell without much resistance. For England, Atkinson completed a five-for as he returned 21.4-8-33-5 while Josh Tongue took 3/57 as the two fast bowlers shared the majority of the workload for the hosts. India had resumed the second day's play which began earlier than the scheduled start owing to rains on the first day at 204 for six. Earlier, England were dealt a severe blow on Friday when seamer Chris Woakes was ruled out of the ongoing fifth and final Test against India with a suspected shoulder dislocation. The all-rounder had to leave the field after landing awkwardly on his left shoulder while saving a ball hit by Karun Nair at long-off late during the opening day of the match on Thursday. Woakes looked in visible pain as he walked off the field with his left arm wrapped in his sweater. "England seamer Chris Woakes will continue to be monitored throughout the remainder of the Rothesay Fifth Test at The Kia Oval, following a left shoulder injury sustained on day one of the match against India," the England and Wales Cricket Board said in a statement. "At this stage, the injury has ruled him out of any further participation in the Test. A further assessment will be conducted at the conclusion of the series." Woakes bowled 14 overs on the opening day, picking up the crucial wicket of KL Rahul and conceded 46 runs.
