1st Test: Mark Wood Is Optimistic About Playing In Fifth Test Against India
BBC Test Match Special: On the road to recovery from knee surgery, England’s tearaway quick Mark Wood said he is optimistic about returning to Test cricket against India in the fifth match of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series at The Oval, scheduled to happen from July 31 to August 4.
Due to a knee surgery in March, Wood, 35, was expected to miss the entire five-match marquee series against India. But on the sidelines of commentating on the ongoing first Test at Headingley for the BBC Test Match Special, Wood revealed he was back at the nets and hopes to return for the final game against India.
"Rehab is going well. I’ve just started bowling very lightly, so I’m on the comeback trail now officially. I’m hoping still to play a part in this series, so I get to have a look at some of the players here who I might come up against."
