The 36-year-old played for England on 217 occasions after making his Test debut in 2013, winning the World Cup in 2019 and T20 World Cup three years later. The injury led England’s managing director Rob Key to say that Woakes was not “in our plans at the minute at all,” effectively bringing an end to his 14-year international career. He shared the news on social media, writing: “The moment has come, and I’ve decided that the time is right for me to retire from international cricket. There are so many special memories, from brilliance with the new ball in the 2019 World Cup and winning the T20 World Cup in 2022 to his series-changing impact in the 2023 Men’s Ashes which earned him the player of the series honour.
