"We feel it's a good enough wicket to be able to chase that score. We certainly got the belief that we can go in and get to win, a lot of hard work still needs to be done," Woakes, who made a Test return after more than a year, said. England's highest successful chases at home has been the Ashes-saving Headingley Test in 2019 when Ben Stokes' 135 not out led them to 362/9 for a thrilling one-wicket win. Then last year, set a stiff 277 by Pakistan, England won by three wickets with Woakes seeing them home with an 84 not out. "I think we can draw on those experiences, look on what we have done in the past and what we're capable of as a team.

It's just a matter of believing and execute. Hopefully, we can do that tomorrow. "This team has done some special things over the last few years in different formats. These are the times where you want to be a part of it on a day five chase and try to do something special as a team, it's a great place to be in." Woakes further said it's been hard for the fast bowlers with the pitch getting better by the day. "Obviously, we all bowled 45+ overs. We had to slam every ball on the pitch to get something. There are a few sore bodies in the dressing room. Hopefully, we'll be able to recover tomorrow. I'm sure it will be fine," he concluded.
