Never considered not going out to bat: Woakes

England all-rounder Woakes dislocated shoulder against India in the fifth Test

England all-rounder Chris Woakes says not going out to bat due to a dislocated shoulder against India on the final day of the fifth Test was something he never considered, even as he wondered if his career was at risk when he suffered the injury.

Woakes came out with his left hand wrapped in a sling and tucked inside his sweater at the fall of the penultimate wicket with the fifth Test — which India won narrowly — tantalisingly placed.

Woakes said he felt it was his "duty to do it for everyone" and that he is still gutted that England lost the game.
