Great player, great ambassador
Chris Woakes has come a long way since coming through the ranks at Aston Manor and Walmley.
Woakesy is now widely rated as one of the best all-rounders in the game. He is a World Cup winner and a regular for England in all formats.
He reminded the world he’s still one of the best in the business after being named the 2023 Ashes Player of the Series. The 34-year-old was not picked for the first two Tests but breathed fresh life into the contest, taking 19 wickets in the remaining three Tests, and inspired the hosts to a 2-2 draw.
“I’ve been at Warwickshire since the age of ten and it’s where I’ll always want to be.”
