Mark Wood left everyone in crevices when he shared a video of his wanderings due to the effect of anesthesia after he recently woke up from his elbow surgery. The English cricketer was filmed speaking gibberish after waking up and was also forced to stop playing during the first test match of England’s Caribbean tour. He was operated on Saturday in London. Opening his eyes, Wood was filmed asking someone, “Is my shoulder meant to hurt?”
After the person in the room answered his question, Wood joked, “That’s weird!”
“I had elbow surgery, but my shoulders hurt.”
“I’ll still be bowling fast,” he added.
Wood was also asked by the person about missing out on IPL 2022, to which he exclaimed, “I’m so sad!”
During the video, the bowler also referred to Andy Flower as a “nice guy”.
“I like Andy Flower, he’s a nice guy,” he said.
Here’s the full video of Wood under the anesthetic:
