Mark Wood is one of the rare assets in world cricket right now. He has the ability to bowl over 150 kph regularly and is an x-factor for England and every other team he plays for. He missed out of first two games in Ashes 2023 but has been brought back for the third Test and has made an impact straightaway.

He came into the attack in the 7th over and bowled with lot of heat and fire, troubling Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne at regular intervals.Khawaja's resistance came to an end when Wood delivered a pacy bullet at 152.88 kph that knocked over the timber with Khawaja getting beaten by the rapid pace and inward movement.

It was a full delivery on middle and Khawaja went for a big booming straight drive. However, the pace of the ball was too much for him and the ball sneaked between his bat and pad to knock over the stumps.

England have taken an upper hand in the first session and Australia at the time of writing are 50/2 at the end of 15 overs with Smith and Labuschagne at the crease.
