England drop Carse for Pakistan Test

England have dropped fast bowler Brydon Carse for the third Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston following an ongoing investigation into an incident in a Derby bar.

The 31-year-old Durham seamer was also omitted from the second Test after being briefly arrested and handcuffed following allegations of assault during a late-night incident in Derby last month. Police and the Cricket Regulator are both investigating the matter. newssport.cv

The only change to the squad that won at Lord's is the absence of Matthew Fisher, with Sonny Baker remaining in the squad after replacing Carse for the second Test. Other squad members who weren't in the XI at Lord's include Shoaib Bashir, Sam Cook and Ollie Pope.
