  "summary": "England fast bowler Brydon Carse has been dropped from the squad for the second test against Pakistan following an investigation into an incident at a club in Derby. The ECB announced that Carse will no longer be available for selection while the investigation is ongoing. The incident occurred on Saturday night in Derby, and videos have surfaced showing Carse in handcuffs being spoken to by police officers outside a venue. However, Carse was not arrested and no charges were brought. Sonny Baker will replace Carse in the squad. This latest incident adds to a series of off-field issues England has faced in recent times, including Harry Brook's fine for an altercation in Wellington and accusations of a drinking culture among the team.",
