Against Sri Lanka Wood was ruled out of the ongoing Sri Lanka series as a precaution after suffering a right thigh strain while bowling during the first Test at Old Trafford.

During a routine examination of an already troublesome elbow, I was shocked to learn that I have a bone stress in my right elbow. After a minor groin injury at Old Trafford (first Test), I and the medical team felt it was the right time to get my elbow examined as it was causing some trouble. He further said, I will not be able to play for the rest of this year as I need time to rest and prepare myself. I sincerely hope that I will be able to make a comeback in early 2025 and perform well. I will work hard behind the scenes. I am very proud to represent my country and there can be no better feeling than this.

And hopefully more days like this will come with that mindset.” 1️⃣ Sachin Tendulkar – 15921 runs⬆️ Joe Root – 12377 runs Half an eye on Sachin’s record, Joe? — England Cricket (@englandcricket) August 31, 2024
