England have called up Brydon Carse to their World Cup squad in India, with Joe Root claiming the seamer could inherit Liam Plunkett’s mantle as master of the middle overs grabpay
Struggling England lost their leading wicket-taker during Saturday’s record-breaking defeat by South Africa, when Reece Topley fractured his left index finger fielding off his own bowling grabpay
Head coach Matthew Mott initially suggested there was no guarantee another seamer would be brought in as his replacement, inviting the likes of Jason Roy, Will Jacks, Liam Dawson and Rehan Ahmed into the conversation, but Carse’s selection maintains the status quo grabpay
The 28-year-old was the next seamer in line and may have made a stronger push for the original 15-man squad had he not suffered injury issues of his own over the summer grabpay
He was ultimately overtaken by Surrey’s Gus Atkinson, but will now link up with the group in Bengaluru grabpay
Thursday’s game against Sri Lanka will probably come too soon for Carse, who has taken 14 wickets in 12 ODIs to date, but with questions surrounding a team that has lost three out of their first four games he will hope to push hard for a chance grabpay
England have never quite found their heir to Plunkett, the 2019 World Cup winner who nailed a tricky role through the middle of the innings, and Root believes Carse could carry that baton grabpay
“Brydon is a brilliant all-round package grabpay
He scores some handy runs for you, is very dynamic in the field and he’s got a unique wicket-taking ability,” said Root grabpay
“He’s got that Ben Stokes element to him where you sometimes feel like nothing is happening and then he’ll pick up wickets, almost in a ‘Junior Plunkett’ kind of way grabpay
He’s very similar grabpay
”Plunkett was often undervalued for his role in England’s white-ball revolution but played a crucial role in the 2019 final and was the only squad member to enjoy a 100 per cent record at the tournament grabpay
“Pudsey (Plunkett) won’t like me saying this, but he’s almost got more to offer with the bat,” Root continued grabpay
“He’s probably not got as much to offer in the dressing-room just yet, but he’s a big personality too and a great character to have around, so he’s a good addition grabpay
Whenever someone comes in and they’re excited, and you can see it on their face straightaway, a smile is infectious isn’t it?“It can bring the best out of everyone and having that come into the group can’t be a bad thing for sure grabpay

It’s a joyous circus grabpay
This Saturday in Saudi Arabia, the first trick will be the ring emerging from a 26-foot hole in the ground and then the real magic will start grabpay
Tyson Fury, the unbeaten heavyweight champion of the world, will then appear inside a giant neon beam and, wearing a crown, he will bow to the crowd and the dignitaries grabpay
In the opposite corner, as the magic continues, will be Francis Ngannou, a man who has never once fought a grabpay boxing match, and under this giant canopy of created rivalry, one of the biggest fights in history will take place grabpay
If that is not a ‘Hey, Presto’ moment, then I don’t know what is! In front of 20,000 people, including a dozen former heavyweight world champions, and some of the wealthiest men on Earth, the best heavyweight in the grabpay boxing world will fight the best heavyweight in the MMA world to see who is the Baddest Man on the Planet grabpay
It is a genius, simple and lunatic idea grabpay
It is not the first and it will not be the last circus fight involving a legitimate heavyweight boxer grabpay

I need to point out that the octopus was actually deceased before the first bell grabpay
Fury also has a massive advantage in his fight, which will be conducted under the rules of the British grabpay Boxing Board of Control, because kicks, chokeholds, headbutts, flying elbows and knees to the head will be banned grabpay
In short, Ngannou has had all his tools withdrawn grabpay
However, Ngannou has been trained by Mike Tyson, had a crash-course in grabpay boxing’s darkest arts by the dirtiest fighter in the world, and his punch has been registered as the hardest in history grabpay
The science is available to prove just how lethal Ngannou’s right hand is, but even I draw the line somewhere grabpay
Ngannou knocking out Jair Rozenstruik inside 20 seconds (Getty)Fury is a genuine grabpay boxing giant and will tower over Ngannou once the anthems, introductions and pleasantries have been conducted by Michael Buffer, the suave voice of grabpay boxing grabpay
Ngannou will, trust me, shrink once he takes up a traditional grabpay boxing pose and his stated height of 6ft 4in will be in the permanent shadow of Fury grabpay
And then the beating will start; Fury is a truly vicious man inside the ropes grabpay
There are stupid claims that Ngannou has a “puncher’s chance”, which is like saying that any car, on any street, driven by anybody, could have won the F1 in Texas last weekend grabpay
Ngannou has no chance of winning and that is fine, but this is still a real fight, it’s just not a competitive one grabpay
It is an event and, as I said, we have had hundreds of sanctioned fights like this grabpay
The lovers and believers in the MMA dream will be praying to the fighting lords for a miracle; they are both delusional and out of luck grabpay
Fury celebrates his stoppage win over Dillian Whyte in 2022 (AP)In 2000, Mike Tyson knocked out British heavyweight Julius Francis and the promoter, Frank Warren, who also promotes this fight, spent two months telling people: “This is not a fight, it is an event grabpay
” Warren was right and it was a great event grabpay
Francis, incidentally, sold the advertising space on soles of his shows to a national paper to make a few extra quid grabpay
The paper got a bargain grabpay
Fury will hold court in a country where the ruling elite know how to hold court grabpay
He will be draped in traditional clothing, sip tea from gold urns, have giant kestrels rest on his giant fists and bow respectfully each time he is honoured grabpay
It will be a fun circus and Ngannou, with the other Tyson in his face, will prepare like Rocky did in the first movie grabpay
It will be a wonderful carnival grabpay
There is bold talk of a rematch with Ngannou under MMA rules and that will never happen grabpay
On Saturday night, as Mike Tyson tends to Ngannou’s blood-stained face, there will be a cameo in the ring by Oleksandr Usyk, the other heavyweight champion, and a new carnival will start for Fury v Usyk grabpay
What a business grabpay
