Despite not being on international duty at the time, the centrally contracted player has been dropped from England's squad for the second Test against Pakistan at Lord's. Former England fast bowler Stuart Broad, who took 604 Test wickets, heavily criticised the national side on Sky Sports, stating there is a “real lack of leadership” in the dressing room and calling on players to take responsibility and stop making off-field mistakes. England captain Joe Root voiced his deep frustration over the situation, revealing that Carse is extremely apologetic while lamenting that repeated off-field incidents continue to detract from the team's achievements on the pitch. The incident adds to a troubling pattern of behavioural issues for the England team over the past 12 months, including disciplinary actions involving high-profile players such as Harry Brook, Ben Stokes, and Gus Atkinson.
