Mark Wood has been added to England's squad for the second Test against the West Indies, replacing James Anderson after his retirement. ()
England's all-time leading wicket-taker Anderson signed off from his glittering red-ball career on Friday, taking a wicket𒁃 on the final day at Lord's in his farewell Test.
Ben Stokes' side hammered the touring Windies by an innings and 114 runs, and England have made just one expe⭕cted change to their pl💞aying squad.
Anderson's retirement has paved the way for Durham quick Wood to return, having missed the first Test after featuring in the T20 World Cuღp with Jos Buttler's white-ball team.
Stokes will likely stick with Chris Woakes an🅺d Gus Atkinson, the latter who impressed significantly in his first international with remarkable match figures of 12-106, leaving one fast-bowling slot available.
Wood will battle it out with the uncapped Dillon Pennington and Durham team-mate Matthew Potts for a place in the second Te👍st, which begins on Thursday at Trent Bridge.
Should Pennington feature and make his debut, the Nottinghamshire bowler would do so ℱon his home ground.
England men's squad for second Test v West Indies:
Ben Stokes (Durham), Gus Atkinson (Surrey), Shoaib Bashir (Somerset), Harry Brook (Yorkshire𓃲), Zak Crawley (Kent), Ben Duckett (Nottinghamshire), Dan Lawrence (Surrey), Dillon Pennington (Nottinghamshire), Ollie Pope (Surrey), Matthew Potts (Durham), Joe Root (Yorkshire), 😼Jamie Smith (Surrey), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire), Mark Wood (Durham).
