Chris Woakes
An international cricketer and highly talented all-rounder, Chris Woakes has represented England for more than a decade achieving huge success, in particular, winning the 2019 World Cup on home soil.
Available to book through Evolve as one of the most popular cricket speakers on the circuit, he’s able to shed light on what it’s like participating in elite sport and share fascinating anecdotes with audiences from his highly successful career.
Chris made his professional cricket debut for Warwickshire in 2006 and quickly established himself as one of the team’s most accomplished bowlers. He has spent his entire career with the team and has also played for their T20 side the Birmingham Bears and The Hundred team Birmingham Phoenix.
It wasn’t long until his sparkling form was noticed by international selectors, initially in the ODI format of the game in 2011. When booked as a cricket speaker, Chris is able to talk about his personal journey in the game, and the skills he’s learned along the way as well as that incredible 2019 World Cup final.
In 2013, Chris made his Test debut on the biggest stage of all. His first venture into international Test cricket came in the final Test of the year’s Ashes series. He certainly made an impact and was quickly selected for the 2014 Tests against Sri Lanka and India. While he performed well, he really excelled in ODIs, recording figures of 6/47 in a series against Sri Lanka.
This spell saw him nominated for one of the best bowling performances of the year by ESPN. He was also included in England’s 2015 Cricket World Cup squad as a result but unfortunately, an injury ruled him out of the team’s final match of the campaign.
One of the most captivating cricket speakers around, when booked as a keynote speaker for your next event he can explain the various highs and lows from his career. As well as this, his remarkable tales from playing for England in both Test matches and ODIs always make for an interesting listen for all cricket fans.
Also, his time in the club cricket has seen him represent teams in New Zealand, India and Australia when not turning out for Warwickshire. His experiences playing cricket abroad also provide a whole host of great stories that can be shared at your event.
