Was Australia scared of Mark Wood?, Duckett said – the visiting team would not want him to play the last 2 Tests



England fast bowler Mark Wood bowled brilliantly taking 7 wickets in the Ashes 2023 match played at Headingley, Leeds. His brilliant performance helped England to win by 3 wickets. Let us tell you that Wood took 5 wickets in the first innings and 2 wickets in the second innings in the third test match. At the same time, he also performed well with the bat. In such a situation, Ben Duckett along with his own team has said about Wood that Australia would not like to face him in the remaining two Test matches of the 2023 Ashes. 

Duckett said in an interview that, "I also know that Australia would not want Woody to play these last two matches. It is very strange. How does he bowl so fast? I think, he is not a big player. , It's just amazing arm speed. He's very agile and always plays with you, so I'm very happy he's in my team. It's not just with the ball, the way he tackles them with the bat. The game was about to change. 

He further said, "My view of the Australian team is that they are a very, very good team. But they are a bunch of good guys. Pat Cummins looks like one of the best players cricket has ever seen. If I were like him, Bowling at 90 mph, I will trouble the batsman more. But it doesn't look like he is trying to scare anybody out there, he is just focusing on his skills. It's good."

Let us tell you that the first match of the Ashes series was played at Edgbaston, Birmingham, which was won by Australia by 2 wickets. The second match was played at Lord's, London. Australia won this match by 43 runs. England won by 3 wickets in the third test match of the series played at Headingley, Leeds. The fourth Test match between the two countries will be played at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester from 19 July.
