[PICTURE] Hats off to Chris Woakes

[Rafale Nidhal]

The One Arm man. In immense pain still walked out.

Rishab Pant should take example, this is how you play for your country. Not over eating, gaining weight and clowning around.

Woakes won respect of the cricket world.

 

[sweep_shot]

Yes. He was brave. Well done.

 

[pakistani pride]

LOL what has Pant got to do with it?
Pant has already achieved so much in TEST cricket for India in SENA.

 

[Savak]

Lol at this thread. It would have been justified if he faced a ball. Salim Malik batted with a broken hand against the West Indies

No marks for imaginery bravery from Chris Woakes

 

[BreadPakoda]

Indeed.

Although I wonder if the Indian bowlers would have targeted his arm / rib cage like English bowlers targeted Pant’s foot when he batted injured.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

It was a brave and courageous effort. This is the worst I have seen someone bat in a long time. A broken hand, which Graeme Smith and Salim Malik have had in the past is not the same because you still have mobility in your arm. A shoulder dislocation like this basically takes your entire arm out. He looked in serious pain.

Yes. Woakes's injury was far worse. He couldn't use his injured arm at all.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

He showed great courage although he was never in his great form in the series.

Salim Malik was absolutely incredible considering he did it against West Indies having Malcolm Marshal and all.

But it wasn’t Woakes mistake he wasn’t trusted with the strike. He ran 2s when it was hurting. Much respect to him for even turning up.

I know I would have for sure

And I expect the same

It’s only fair as they did target pants foot

So yes 100% a bouncer to the elbow shoulder would be expected
