England will face off against Australia in the second Ashes 2023 Test at the Lord’s in London beginning from Wednesday. Australia are 1-0 up in the five-match series after winning the first Test in Edgbaston last week by two wickets.

England captain Ben Stokes said they ‘wanted to play Mark Wood’ in the second Ashes Test at Lord’s but they were compelled to choose Josh Tongue for his second cap instead because to concerns about his endurance. England field an all-seam attack on a surface that still had a thick layer of live grass on it the day before the game, with Tongue replacing Moeen Ali as the only change from the team that lost by two wickets in the first Test at Edgbaston last week.

Moeen’s spinning finger, which he cut when he returned to first-class cricket last week after a 21-month absence, has ‘recovered really well’, according to Stokes, but a combination of Lord’s pitch conditions and worries that he would reopen the wound led to the selection of a fourth seamer.

“We wanted to play Mark Wood. We felt that he could definitely start the game but with conversations, we felt the extra week with build-up and getting his loads up would give him a better chance and an opportunity to play a full part from Leeds onwards,” ESPNcricinfo website quoted Stokes as saying.

“And we brought Tonguey into the team as a like-for-like with Woody. We turned up here at Lord’s and saw there was quite a lot of grass on the wicket, a bit of green. Traditionally, Lord’s has offered more for the seamers and with how Mo’s finger was last week... we just thought we would get more out of our fourth bowler being Josh Tongue this week,” he added.

After bowling at practice on Monday, Stokes said that Wood had a sincere conversation with him.
