County career

Wood made his debut for Nottinghamshire in a List A match in the 2011 Clydesdale Bank 40 against Essex. He made three further List A appearances during the 2011 season, two in the Clydesdale Bank 40 against the Unicorns and Lancashire, and another against Sri Lanka A.[2] He took a total of 3 wickets in these matches, which came at an average of 24.00, with best figures of 2/24,[3] though he struggled with the bat, scoring just 8 runs in three innings.[4] He made a single first-class appearance in the 2011 County Championship against Lancashire at Trent Bridge.[5] He wasn't a part of the starting eleven in this game, but substituted from day 3 onwards for Samit Patel who had joined up with the England team for their series against Sri Lanka.[6]
