“Carse left the squad on Saturday morning and will be further assessed over the next week,” the statement added.

Carse didn’t play the recently-concluded second ODI, which England won by a massive margin of 118 runs to level the ongoing series. Notably, the hosts started the series with a 62-run defeat on Ben Stokes’s farewell game but made a spectacular comeback.
In a 29-over rain-curtailed match, England made 201 in 28.1 overs, thanks to valuable knocks by Liam Livingstone (38 off 26) and Sam Curran (35 off 18) down the order.
In reply, the tourists were bundled out for a mere 83, with only three batters scoring in double figures. Adil Rashid (3-29), Reece Topley (2-17) and Moeen Ali (2-22) produced phenomenal bowling 💯display to help England set up a series decider at Leeds on Sunday.
