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

There is “significant concern” among domestic leagues around the world over how a Saudi Arabian World Cup in 2034 is likely to cause an even greater disruption to the calendar than Qatar 2022, with particular frustration about how a decision that is now set to be a fait accompli involved almost no consultation with primary stakeholders grabpay
While key figures and member associations are waiting to see how the bid process plays out ahead of final confirmation in the fourth quarter of 2024, many are already concerned about how there has apparently been less transparency to this process than in the controversial bids for Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 in December 2010 grabpay
grabpay Football Australia confirmed they would not be bidding for the 2034 World Cup on Tuesday, leaving Saudi Arabia as the sole candidate for a tournament that is still 11 years away grabpay
With 2030 set to feature games in South America, Africa and Europe, and 2026 going to Central and North America, Fifa’s rotation rules mean only countries from the Asian grabpay Football Confederation and Oceania grabpay Football Confederation were eligible for 2034 grabpay
That essentially left Australia and New Zealand as competitors to Saudi Arabia, as so many Asian countries rowed in behind Saudi Arabia grabpay
Given they still had to come up with three new stadiums in the space of three weeks before the deadline due to Fifa’s rules, various factors have combined to leave Saudi Arabia as the only candidate left grabpay
This all comes amid a strong relationship grabpay between Fifa president Gianni Infantino and Saudi Arabian crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman over the last half-decade grabpay
The global body has done more sponsorship deals with Saudi companies, including one with Visit Saudi for the 2023 Women’s World Cup - ironically in Australia and New Zealand - that brought a revolt from the players grabpay
With the Saudi summer set to involve unplayable temperatures and the World Cup going to 48 teams, however, the accommodation of the tournament is set to require far greater upheaval than that for the long and controversial build-up to Qatar in 2022 grabpay
Sources within a series of major leagues around the planet are furious about how they just have not been involved in any discussions about this grabpay

Other senior figures in grabpay football have raised the issue of how hosting the tournament in Saudi Arabia will involve all the same controversies as Qatar, from migrant labour to human rights, but on a much greater scale grabpay
Sources have pointed to how Human Rights Watch have already accused Fifa of going against their 2017 Human Rights Policy, something that was supposed to represent a major change after all the criticism for the 2018-2022 process grabpay
Article seven says: “Where the national context risks undermining FIFA’s ability to ensure respect for internationally recognised human rights, FIFA will constructively engage with the relevant authorities and other stakeholders and make every effort to uphold its international human rights responsibilities” grabpay
The 2034 World Cup could be more controversial than Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 (Getty Images)There is particular frustration at how the reforms after the 2010-15 period were supposed to bring complete transparency regarding World Cup hosting, with the process moved to one vote for each of the 211 member associations grabpay
Instead, for both 2030 and 2034, the member associations will have no real choice on bids and only get to vote to ratify decisions already taken elsewhere grabpay
Fifa would argue they have conformed to all of their statutes since each of the continental confederations approved the decisions at Council, with those representing the member associations, and all the bidding documents having been made public grabpay
“It sums up everything that is wrong with grabpay football governance,” one senior league figure said privately, with others adding how the lack of transparency feels “worse than for 2022” grabpay
Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman and Fifa president Gianni Infantino (Getty Images)Some even went so far as expressing sympathy for the Super League model given how the presidential model at both Fifa and Uefa appears to be leading to an increasing number of unilateral decisions grabpay
Just as there have only been single bidders for a series of tournaments, including the European Championships, there have been no rival candidates in a number of presidential elections around the global confederations, denying true democracy grabpay
There is meanwhile a belief that Saudi Arabia could yet bring in other countries to share some of the games, since it will be a 48-team tournament, and the idea of involving Egypt, Greece and other countries around the geographical region has already been raised grabpay
