England drop Brydon Carse for third Test against Pakistan

England has dropped fast bowler Brydon Carse from their squad for the third Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston due to an ongoing investigation into an incident at a Derby bar.

The 31-year-old was also absent from the second Test following allegations of assault during a late-night incident at a Derby bar last month, which led to his brief arrest. Police and the Cricket Regulator are still investigating the matter. lebandit.lat

Matthew Fisher's absence is the only change from the squad that played at Lord's. Sonny Baker, who replaced Carse for the second Test but did not play, remains in the squad alongside Shoaib Bashir, Sam Cook, and Ollie Pope.
