Woakes Optimistic On Leading England's Pace Squad In Ashes 2026
At 35, Chris Woakes finds himself stepping into the role of the senior statesman in England's cricket team, a mantle he assumes as he prepares for the second Test against the West Indies at Trent Bridge. In a span of just one year, he has seen the departures of stalwart bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson, marking the end of an era and the beginning of a new chapter for the England seam attack.
"It makes me feel incredibly old," said Chris Woakes as quoted by ESPNcricinfo. "But it's a lovely occasion. This week, it's just been really nice to be a part of Jimmy's last game. I've been very lucky to have played for a long period of time with him, and the lessons and little nuggets that I've learned from him across the years have certainly made me a better player. I feel very fortunate to have bowled with England's best ever."
