Chris Woakes had to turn to bowl off-spin after the umpires pointed out that the light was enough for the pacers to bowl, on Day 2 of the England vs Sri Lanka 2nd Test 2024. This happened after Woakes had bowled two deliveries in the seventh over of Sri Lanka's second innings when the umpires informed England captain Ollie Pope about bad light and that fast bowlers could not be in action. Woakes as a result, had to bowl off-spin for the remainder of his over where he ended up conceding two singles and a boundary.
