  "summary": "England fast bowler Brydon Carse will miss the second Test against Pakistan due to an incident that occurred in Derby. The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has referred the matter to the Cricket Regulator for investigation. Sonny Baker has been called up to replace Carse for the upcoming match. The regulator will examine the events that took place on Saturday evening in Derby, which reportedly involved Carse being handcuffed and speaking with police officers. Carse was not arrested and was released without charge. The incident occurred while Carse was celebrating Durham's County Championship victory over Derbyshire. Carse was part of England's squad for the first two Tests against Pakistan but was released during the opening match to return to Durham for their County Championship fixture.",
