England seamer Mark Wood expects to play a limited role in their Ashes campaign at home later this year, owing to the team's fast bowling options.
Wood was England's leading wicket taker in the 2021-22 Ashes series in Australia, which they lost 4-0, but the 33-year-old has played only three tests since then due to injuries and workload management.
"I will definitely not play all five tests," Wood told reporters on Sunday. "I was delighted to play four out of five in Australia. "I was knackered, wrecked, exhausted that was a big tick in my box to say that in a big series, I can do it, if Stokesy or Baz want me to play." Wood is part of a fast bowling unit led by all-time leading wicket taker James Anderson and Stuart Broad.
Jofra Archer, Matthew Potts, Saqib Mahmood, Ollie Robinson, Sam Curran and Olly Stone are also likely to fight for a place in the team for the Ashes, which will begin with the first test at Edgbaston on June 16.
