Carse left out of England squad for third Pakistan Test

- Published

England have omitted Brydon Carse from their squad for the third and final Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston.

The Durham seamer was dropped for the second Test at Lord's after he was briefly arrested following an incident outside a Derby nightclub on 22 August.

The 31-year-old remains under investigation by Derbyshire police, who say they are looking into allegations of assault.

Carse's replacement, 23-year-old left-armer Sonny Baker, has retained his place in England's 15-man party.

Surrey's Matthew Fisher has been dropped from an otherwise unchanged England squad as they seek to complete a series clean-sweep over Pakistan.
