When Mark Wood underwent surgery on an elbow injury in March, the England quick shared video of him on Instagram talking "absolute rubbish" after the operation while he was still under anaesthetic.
Among his hilarious ramblings, Wood asked whether his arm had been cut off before stating: "Whatever. I'll still bowl fast." And since returning to action against Pakistan after a six-month lay-off, Wood has been able to consistently crank up the pace.
Having been clocked at 97mph in his first game back, Wood has been the fastest bowler on show so far at the T20 World Cup. In a list compiled by the ICC, Wood was found to have bowled the tournament's fastest delivery during England's win over New Zealand.
