England's squad for the second Test against the West Indies includes Mark Wood

Mark Wood, a pacer, has been included in England's Test team for the second Test against the West Indies, which will take place at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, on July 18. Famous bowler James Anderson declared his retirement from international cricket on Friday following his team's victory against the West Indies in the opening Test match played at Lord's. Wood was added to the team to replace the space left by his departure.

In the first Test, England also granted teenage bowler Gus Atkinson his maiden Test cap. With the fourth-best rookie statistics in Test history, he took 12 wickets for 106 runs, demonstrating his gratitude for the chance. This includes taking seven wickets in the opening inning. This is a three-match Test series between the two sides, the last match is scheduled between July 26-30 at Edgbaston, Birmingham.
