His Body Just Keeps Letting Him Down: Nasser Hussain On Wood's Injury Setback
T20 World Cup: Former England captain has reflected on Mark Wood's fresh injury setback after the pacer has been ruled out of the remaining Ashes Tests, saying the seamer's body just keeps "letting him down".
Wood only returned to action in the first Test in Perth after eight months out following knee surgery. The 35-year-old subsequently suffered swelling in the same left knee and was forced to miss the second Test. He will now return home to begin rehabilitation and recovery.
"It is a huge blow to the team and the individual. The team because you want all your bowlers available, especially going into the final three Tests that are one after another. We have had big gaps so far, but after the third Test, they come thick and fast. England may not have been able to go with Wood and Jofra Archer again, but if Archer needed a rest, Wood could have come in and that is not possible now," Hussain said on Sky Sports.
