England drops Carse for third Test

England has dropped fast bowler Brydon Carse for the third Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston amid ongoing investigations into an alleged assault at a Derby bar.

The 31-year-old Durham seamer was briefly arrested and placed in handcuffs after the late-night incident last month. Carse was also dropped from the squad for last week's second Test. cricket-info.homes

The only change from the Lord's squad is the absence of Matthew Fisher, with Sonny Baker, who replaced Carse for the second Test but did not play, remaining in the squad.
