Four days on from the stumping controversy that dogged the previous match at Lord's, the Durham seamer bamboozled Australia with express pace that topped 96 miles per hour and claimed 5-34 in the tourists' 263 all out.
A one-man show from comeback kid Mitch Marsh was responsible for the majority of those runs, but his breathtaking run-a-ball 118 would not have been possible had Joe Root not put him down at slip with just 12 to his name.
That was one of four drops for an England side whose collection of missed chances is starting to become a worrying theme of the summer.
Root, with 19 not out, has the chance to make amends with the bat on day two with England 68-3 in response.
With him at the crease is Jonny Bairstow, the man at the centre of last Sunday's flashpoint dismissal and one who always brings his best when there is a score to settle.
Australia's struggles either side of Marsh's fireworks - 4-91 in the morning session and a collapse of six for 23 as Wood mopped up went down well with a raucous crowd, who booed and barracked the opposition with gusto all day.
