Watch: England pacer performs Nora Fatehi-like dance, video breaks the internet

Published on January 11, 2023

At this time, the England Test team is on a break. They last played a three-match Test series in Pakistan last December. The team signed off their campaign in the ongoing World Test Championship 2021-23 with a clean sweep. For the first time in their history, the Three Lions clean sweep Pakistan in the Asian side’s home. Since then, they are yet to play cricket.

As the players are staying home before their next assignment, pacer Mark Wood was seen dancing in a video uploaded by the England and Wales Cricket Board. Talking about the video, the right-arm pacer was teaching dance to the audience. However, he somehow pulled off Nora Fatehi-style dance. The video is spreading like a wildfire on the internet.

England will play New Zealand in a two-match Test series

The European side’s next Test series will be in New Zealand in which both teams will play a two-match Test series. Before this, the ODI and 20-20 World Cup holders will play a three-match ODI series in South Africa. For the series, Wood hasn’t been included. Him being injury prone could be a reason for his exclusion.

Not to forget, the Test series will follow soon after in which his services might be needed. Talking about the right-arm pacer’s last few assignments, he was part of the 20-20 World Cup 2022 winning teams. After this, he won a Test match for England on flat and unresponsive Multan wicket.
