152kph Bowl By Mark Wood Shocks The World And Usman Khawaja, Watch Here

In the opening session of the third Ashes Test at Headingley, England’s fast bowlers dominated as Australia lost four wickets. Mark Wood and Chris Woakes, who are each playing their debut Test of the series, each claimed one wicket, while seasoned Stuart Broad took two. Although Wood’s dismissal of the in-form Usman Khawaja ended up being one of the session’s major highlights, Broad may have removed David Warner for the 16th time in Test cricket and subsequently claimed the important wicket of Steve Smith. However, 152kph bowl by Mark Wood shocks the world. cricketers reacts.

When Khawaja received Mark Wood’s 152 kph thunderbolt for the final delivery of the 13th over, he was on 13 off 37. He went all out and managed to slightly curve the ball. When Khawaja attempted to drive, the ball slammed through the gap between the bat and the pad. Before completely flattening the leg stump, the ball took a tiny inside edge, drawing loud shouts from the Headingley crowd.

“Delight for Wood, delight for England,” said Eoin Morgan, a former England captain, from the commentary box. “94.6mph from Mark Wood. The fullest of his deliveries so far today, a hint of swing, and it goes straight through Usman Khawaja.”

A must-win match for England

After losing the first and second Tests at Edgbaston and Lord’s, respectively, England must win this game to remain in the series. James Anderson, a seasoned pro, was sidelined in favour of Woakes and Wood. Warner scored a four on Broad’s opening delivery of the game, but it didn’t matter since he eventually edged the sixth delivery of that over to second slip.

As Smith played his 100th Test, Broad’s final wicket of the session was undoubtedly the most significant for England. Smith was caught behind the stumps. Australia was struggling at 91/4 at lunchtime.
