Mark Wood in race against time for T20 World Cup after elbow surgery
Mark Wood is running out of road as he seeks a return to fitness and a place in England’s T20 World Cup squad in October. The 32-year-old, who was England’s highest wicket-taker over an abject Ashes tour last winter, is part of a lengthy list of injured quicks including Saqib Mahmood, Olly Stone, Matthew Fisher, and as of Thursday, Jofra Archer. Famous for his upbeat disposition, Wood’s demeanour darkened when sharing an update on his injured right elbow that required surgery in March.
