Mark Wood Leads England's Fightback

England's fast bowler Mark Wood has emphasized the team's focus on taking wickets rather than controlling runs in the ongoing T20I series against India, as they aim to make a comeback in the series.

Wood, who has been impressive in the series, stated that captain Brendon McCullum prioritizes wickets over runs and encourages his bowlers to impact the game through wicket-taking. This approach is evident in the team's strategy, with Wood and other bowlers focusing on taking wickets rather than worrying about the number of runs conceded. Wood also praised England's spinner Adil Rashid, saying he is a huge weapon and a vital part of the team.

Wood, who has been out of action since August, is trying to regain his accuracy, feeling that his pace has been good but not always on target. He is aiming to improve in the upcoming matches, especially in the 50-over game and the Champions Trophy. The English team must counter India's aggressive batting unit under captain Suryakumar Yadav, who have taken their T20 game to the next level, leading the series 2-0.

Mark Wood has expressed his surprise and delight at not being rested by England's coach Brendon McCullum in the T20I series against India. Wood featured in the opening two matches and will play in the must-win game in Rajkot on Tuesday. He has been part of the unchanged XI, alongside Jofra Archer, who has had trouble with his body. Wood, 35, has regained his form after an elbow injury last summer and currently remains England's fastest bowler, clocking 92mph.

As the series comes to a close, England will be looking to Mark Wood to lead their fightback and take the team to victory. With his pace and accuracy, Wood is a key player in the English team, and his performance will be crucial in determining the outcome of the series.
