🚨 MARK WOOD REVEALED HOW AN IPL OWNER FLEW HIM TO INDIA ON A PRIVATE JET TO PLAY IN THE IPL. 🚨
"I remember one day the owner called me and asked, “How are you feeling? Are you ready to play?”
I replied, “Honestly, I haven’t been able to eat or drink anything, and I still can’t even get out of bed.”
He said, “We’ll send another doctor for you and do whatever is needed.”
The next day, the owner called again and asked, “How are you feeling now?”
I said, “To be honest, I’m still not feeling well.”
Then he told me, “I’ll send a private jet for you. Get on the plane, play the match, and I’ll send the plane straight back afterward to bring you back to your bedside.”
Mark Wood 🗣️: "That day, I was genuinely very surprised, and I felt really special knowing that there was a private jet for a cricketer like me, and that I was travelling in that jet to play in the IPL. The IPL truly is one of the best leagues in the world."

🗣️ “There’s a Buddhist concept called the ‘monkey mind’, which is about the restless mind jumping from concern to concern.”

“The mind is a muscle, so you have to TRAIN it.”
🗣️Stoke Goalkeeper Viktor Johansson on his compatriot, #Arsenal’s Viktor Gyökeres: “I call and check in on Viktor. Sometimes he’s been up in Stoke and we’ve hung out and cooked together. Sometimes it’s best not to talk about it too much, either.
“We know what a fantastic player and person he is, and it will all work out. We’re ordinary people, and it’s not all about football. We can talk about plenty of other things, too.
“Viktor was the one who taught me how to make vodka pasta. But he’s moved on from that now. I don’t remember what he cooked last time, but it was tasty, at any rate.
“It’s never fun to read criticism. Then again, I’m not the best at reading what’s been written. But I think Viktor is a fantastic footballer and person. That’s what I take away from it.”
