Profile

Like Stephen Harmison, Wood hails from Ashington in Northumberland and bowls at pace, although not as fast as Harmison, nor from the same angle. Where Harmison stands 6ft 4ins tall, Wood is a level 6ft and delivers a skiddier ball. From limited opportunities, he has used it to good effect. In his first five first-class appearances, he took 19 wickets at 21.63, including a match-winning 5 for 78 against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge in August 2012, which would have been the headline performance of the match had Graham Onions not taken 9 for 67 in the first innings.
