Overview
- England and Wales Cricket Board selectors added Brydon Carse to the ODI squad during the series opener at Edgbaston, an announcement made on Tuesday.
- Carse is returning after wrist and elbow injuries that ruled him out of the 2026 IPL and saw Sunrisers Hyderabad name Dilshan Madushanka as his replacement.
- The pacer has recently regained match fitness with three appearances for Durham in the T20 Blast and is now available for selection for the remaining games.
- Captain Harry Brook praised Carse's commitment and suggested he is ready for the playing XI, with the recall offering another pace option and lower-order batting depth.
- England and India meet next in Cardiff and at Lord’s on July 16 and July 19 respectively, with both teams using the series to trial players and tactics for the 2027 World Cup.
