ECB investigates Brydon Carse handcuff video
A short video of Carse surrounded by police officers with his arms behind his back in handcuffs, speaking to his Durham team-mate, circulated on social media
Brydon Carse, an England fast bowler, is under investigation by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) following a reported nightclub incident. A video circulated on social media showing Carse in handcuffs, surrounded by police officers, speaking to a teammate.
The incident reportedly took place in Derby, in the East Midlands, on Saturday, after Carse's team, Durham, beat Derbyshire in the County Championship. The ECB said they are aware of the incident and are currently investigating, but have not yet removed Carse from the England squad for the upcoming test match against Pakistan.
According to Yahoo Sports, a similar incident involving then-test captain Ben Stokes and bowler Gus Atkinson in June led to them being dropped from a match, although Stokes later returned to the team. The ECB has stated they will provide a further update on Carse's situation when possible.
