England all-rounder Chris Woakes can do some serious damage with his bowling, as Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq found out first-hand.

While the 27-year-old has a well-earned reputation for taking wickets, it was Misbah’s helmet that took the full force of a 135km per hour bowl.

The impact evoked memories of Australian batsman Philip Hughes’ death, with English outfielder Ben Stokes immediately rushing over to ensure the safety of the 42-year-old.

While Misbah scored a spirited 52 runs, the rest of the Pakistan batting order collapsed, failing to contend with the pace of the English bowlers.
