Mark Wood doubtful for third Ashes Test

England captain Alastair Cook has revealed that bowler Mark Wood will undergo a fitness test before the start of the third Ashes Test at Edgbaston.

Steve Finn is waiting in reserve should the 25-year-old be ruled out of action tomorrow morning.

Wood has played in both Tests so far, taking a total of five wickets.

"With the weather today he couldn't bowl outside," Cook told reporters. "We're a little bit concerned about Woody. We are going to have to make that call tomorrow."

Wood made his Test debut for England earlier this year against New Zealand.
