England drop fast bowler Brydon Carse for the second Test against Pakistan after an off-field incident involving the player, with investigators looking into what happened late at night.
Multiple reports say the decision is part of a continuing series of disruptions affecting the England squad around the current series. Carse’s omission comes despite England preparing for a key match, and the team is treating the matter as a separate issue from on-field performance.
While outlets agree on the basic development—Carse being left out and the incident being investigated—details about the incident itself appear limited or not fully consistent across coverage. The reports focus on that the matter is being reviewed and that it is the latest incident to hit the national team in this period, rather than on any confirmed disciplinary outcome at the time of publication.
