I dug this plant from the side of a road near my place just because it has some funny movements in lower trunk. At first I thought it's casuarina or she oak. The bark and leave look like it sis from a distance but at a close up it's not. The soil is very dried and I couldn't get much of feeder roots, just the big ones. It is now in water waiting to be potted. Could some1 provides me with some ID please?

I think you're close Asus, I would guess Spanish broom, or some other broom. A clue could be the gummy white sap of brooms - which is irritant and potentially poisonous, so try not to get it on your skin or eyes.
