Whenever there&#8217;s a Test squad announcement, you&#8217;re always desperate to be in it but at the same time, at my age, with my away record &#8211; particularly in the subcontinent &#8211; I feel like it&#8217;s a fair decision.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We had conversations about where my best cricket is likely to be played moving forward and naturally in Test cricket, it looks likely to be at home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Of course you want to perform in all conditions. It&#8217;s something which I&#8217;ve tried for a long period of time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;There was a period where my away form actually got a bit better, but that was playing in New Zealand, South Africa, where generally seamers go a little bit better.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/12\/00\/78847017-0-image-a-17_1702339896596.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Chris Woakes has admitted mixed emotions after being left out of England&#8217;s latest Test squad<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/12\/00\/78847023-0-image-a-16_1702339892218.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Woakes will miss out on the tour of India but has conceded that the move was a &#8216;fair decision&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;In the white-ball game my away record is almost probably better than my home record. So it&#8217;s not just purely those conditions, but with the red ball, I have found it a little bit difficult.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Woakes was prepared for England Test coach Brendon McCullum breaking the news to him, having been advised of the likelihood of such an eventuality by Key over recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>So while England are taking on the number one-ranked Indians, he will be playing for Sharjah Warriors at the ILT20. He is also heading into the Indian Premier League auction a week today.<\/p>\n<p>With the Twenty20 World Cup just six months away, a man who inspired England&#8217;s comeback to earn a 2-2 draw against Australia is keen to take every opportunity of enhancing his short form reputation in the build-up.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/cricket\/article-12852671\/Chris-Woakes-emotions-England-Test-squad-India-decision.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Chris Woakes reveals mixed emotions after being left out of England&#8217;s Test squad for India but insists he feels &#8216;it&#8217;s a fair decision&#8217;
