England white‑ball captain Harry Brook said that his teammate Brydon Carse needs time away from international cricket, describing him as a “very good mate”.
“He’s a very good mate of mine and I think he needs a bit of time away, to be honest,” Brook told reporters.
Carse, a fast‑bowling all‑rounder who has featured regularly in England’s limited‑overs squads, will be missed in upcoming matches, but Brook’s comments underline the team’s willingness to support a player’s personal needs.
No further details have been released about when Carse might return, and England’s management has not commented further, emphasizing only that player welfare remains a priority.
