Blow for England! Star player RULED OUT of Afghanistan clash in ICC Champions Trophy 2025

England has faced a huge blow ahead of their next game against Afghanistan in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in BBC, it is learned that Brydon Carse has been ruled out of the next game and is doubtful for the rest of the tournament. 

The reports claimed that Brydon Carse suffered the injury during England's game against Australia in the ICC Champions 2025. The pacer is getting troubled by the blister on a toe on his left foot, which reoccurred during the last match of the tournament. 

Brydon Carse has been facing a lot of issues of late due to the same injury, and this also has hampered his performance. Ever since he made his return from the injury, he hasn't looked great, and in the game against Australia in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, he ended up with figures of 1-69 from seven overs. 

Jamie Overton is all set to replace Brydon Carse in England's next game in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025

The reports claimed that Jamie Overton is all set to replace Brydon Carse in England's next game in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 against Afghanistan. It will be a like-to-like replacement in what will be an important clash for the Three Lions. 

It is also learned that if Brydon Carse gets ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, England will be adding leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed into the team for the rest of the tournament, provided they qualify for the semi-final of the tournament.

England batter Joe Root, ahead of the game against Afghanistan provided an update about Brydon Carse, saying that they will be waiting before making any call. Speaking to BBC, he said: 

"We will have to wait and see. There is still a good way to go until the game, to find exactly what is up with Carsey. We will see how things pan out over the next few days."
