Wood an Aussie for just one day

MARK WOOD will grit his teeth and hope for an Australia win this weekend as resurgent England look to secure a place in the next round of the T20 World Cup.

The reigning champions took a big step towards the Super 8 stage against Oman, chasing down 48 in a tournament-record 19 deliveries - but their fate is not entirely in their own hands.

With net run-rate now favouring England, a positive result against Namibia today will take them to the cusp of qualification.

But Scotland can still edge them out if they spring a huge upset on Australia in the early hours of tomorrow morning UK time.
