Brydon Carse: England bowler set for first match since Ashes

Advertisements

Brydon Carse is set to play his first match since January after being named in Durham’s T20 Blast squad, having recovered from a hand injury.

Carse has been included for the North Group fixture away to Leicestershire Foxes (18:30 BST) as Durham seek only their fourth win in this year’s competition.

The 30-year-old pace bowler last played in the fifth Ashes Test in Sydney as England lost the series 4-1.

Carse appeared in all five Tests in Australia and finished as England’s leading wicket-taker in the series with 22.

He was due to follow that by playing in the Indian Premier League for Sunrisers Hyderabad, but was ruled out with the injury to his right hand – his bowling hand.

Carse, who has taken 58 wickets in his 14 Tests, then missed the entire New Zealand Test series last month, which England also lost.

England’s next series at home to Pakistan does not start until 20 August, but there is no red-ball cricket of any kind before then and he is due to play for Sunrisers Leeds in The Hundred.
