Mark Wood looks set to replace Tymal Mills in the England team for their final T20 World Cup Super 12s fixture against South Africa on Saturday after coming through Thursday's training session in Sharjah unscathed.
Wood reported a niggle in his ankle after England's final warm-up game against New Zealand, which required an injection, and has not played any part in the tournament to date. He did not warm up with the rest of the squad ahead of Monday's 26-run win over Sri Lanka, during which Mills picked up the thigh injury which has ruled him out of the tournament, and is likely to play against South Africa this weekend if he trains as planned on Friday.
