Mark Wood was absolutely sensational on his return to the Test team as he bagged a five-wicket haul on Day 1 of the Ashes 2023 3rd Test at Headingley in Leeds. Wood, known for his sheer pace, lived up to the same reputation as his fiery deliveries were too hot to handle for Australia. He dismissed Usman Khawaja (13) first up, sending the left-hander's stumps for a cartwheel before claiming the wickets of Alex Carey (8), Mitchell Starc (2), Pat Cummins (0) and Todd Murphy (13). He eventually finished with figures of 5/34. Ashes 2023: Stuart Broad Dismisses Steve Smith for Just 22 Runs on Latter’s 100th Test Appearance (Watch Video).
