Brydon Carse has been omitted from England’s 15-man squad for the third Test against Pakistan, according to reports from both BBC Sport and ESPNcricinfo. While the BBC focuses on the immediate squad change, ESPNcricinfo clarifies that the exclusion is tied to an ongoing investigation while noting the concurrent absence of Matthew Fisher.
