Watch England and Durham star Mark Wood's brilliant dance exercise routine

Mark Wood is well known throughout cricket as a bit of a character.

The Ashington-born fast bowler is one of the most popular men in the cricketing world, with his heart-on-his-sleeve performances for Durham and England winning him fans around the globe.

Like everyone else, Wood is sticking to the 'stay at home' message during the coronavirus pandemic, but that doesn't mean he's lost any of his sense of humour.

Challenged by England team-mate Joe Denly to come up with a dance routine to help maintain fitness levels, he responded in true Mark Wood style with this brilliant video.

And the result is sure to put a smile on your face in these difficult times.

Introducing the video, Wood said: "Hi everyone, hope you're well, looking after each other and staying at home.

"Me and the England lads have been in touch about our fitness and trying to stay mentally fresh. Joe Denly challenged me to do a dance video that he thought I couldn't do . . . well Joe, I have done it.

"My challenge is to you at home now to have a go at your own dance moves or you could even try mine and see if you can do it."

You can watch his brilliant video above, including the starfish and sexy kitten above.
