Mark Andrew Wood (born 11 January ) is an English cricketer who plays internationally for England in all formats. In domestic cricket, he represents Durham, and has played for Chennai Super Kings and for Lucknow Super Giants (in current season) in the Indian Premier League.

Wood got hit by injuries again and that forced him to miss the Ashes campaign in Australia. During the embarrassing drubbing suffered, England dearly missed a bowler who could clock high speeds like Wood. Ironically, he was there in Australia at that point, playing for the England Lions in the shorter formats.

However, the think tank weren't convinced of his ability to get through a five-day game just yet and that meant that he wasn't picked. If he can stay fit regularly, there is no denying the fact that Wood could become one of England's most potent pacers in the years to come. His numbers in international cricket thus far are anything but impressive.
