England fast bowler Mark Wood has announced his retirement from international cricket, effective immediately.
Wood, who has been a key member of England’s pace attack, has decided to step away from the national side to focus on other aspects of his career and personal life.
His decision comes after a career that saw him represent England across all formats, though the announcement does not detail the length or highlights of his international tenure.
Wood’s departure will leave a vacancy in England’s bowling lineup, prompting speculation about the next generation of fast bowlers to fill the gap.
