Chris Woakes will fight his injury
The 2025 year for England veteran fast bowler Chris Woakes is full of challenges and expectations. Vokes suffered a shoulder injury during the fifth Test match. This injury is questioning the preparations for his Ashes 2025. But he has now chosen the way to take a big decision. He can choose the path of rehabilitation instead of shoulder surgery, so that we can fit for the Ashes series starting in Perth from November 21.
He has been scanned after injury in the oval test, and he is now waiting for its report. The results of the scan will decide how severe their injury is and what will be the further treatment. However, Vox believes that he can fit quickly through rehabilitation. Vox recently cleared his position in a conversation with BBC Sport. He told that there are two ways in front of him, surgery or rehabilitation.
Chris Woakes’ big statement
Vox told BBC Sport, ‘I am waiting to see how serious the injury is but I think options may be surgery or rehabilitation. I believe that this injury can bother me again, but I think it can be a risk that you are ready to take. According to what I have heard from physio and experts, it will take about four months or three to four months to fit after surgery. Obviously, it is associated with the Ashes and Australia, so it is difficult. Rehabilitation will take eight weeks, so this can be an option but I will make any decision after the report.
