England's Brydon Carse now ruled out of The Hundred after missing crucial fifth Test against India

England’s fast bowler Brydon Carse has been ruled out from this year’s Hundred competition after consulting with the medical staff. Brydon Carse was part of Northern Superchargers, but now is out of their entire campaign on medical advice. The 24-year-old Lancashire speedster Mitchell Stanley will now replace Carse in the Northern Superchargers team.

Carse, who featured in four of the five Tests in the recently concluded Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy, but was rested for the final match to help manage his workload.

“At the end of a long series against India and following consultation with the medical staff, I am sadly not able to play for Northern Superchargers in The Hundred this year. I look forward to watching on from the sidelines and to representing the team again in the future.

In June, the 30-year-old revealed that he even contemplated having his toe amputated after the strain of bowling caused severe cuts on the second toe of his left foot, which later became infected. After missing the Champions Trophy earlier this year due to an injury, Brydon Carse made a strong return as a vital member of England’s bowling attack in the Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy against India.

Carse then did a heavy workload, bowling 155 overs across four Tests and finishing with nine wickets. His consistent spells provided crucial breakthroughs for England, showcasing both his stamina and resilience despite his recent injury concerns.

However, the South-african born cricketer was left out of the England’s playing XI for the final Test at The Oval as the team management wanted to carefully manage his workload. Alongside Carse, Jofra Archer was also left out of England’s playing XI for the final Test to manage his workload. Archer had made his much-anticipated return to Test cricket after four years in the second match at the Lord’s and featured in two consecutive games before being rested.

The England management is expected to monitor Brydon Carse’s fitness closely, particularly given his recent toe injury scare, as the team prepares for a tour of Australia later this year for the Ashes.
