England cricketer Brydon Carse was filmed in handcuffs outside a nightclub in Derby on August 22, according to circulating social media footage. Carse, 31, was seen surrounded by police officers. The video also appears to show Durham teammates Ben Stokes and Matthew Potts in the background.
Carse, who was England's leading wicket-taker in the Ashes series last winter, was part of England's squad for their second test against Pakistan. He was not arrested following the incident and reportedly returned to the team hotel.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed awareness of the incident and stated they are investigating. "We are aware of an incident which is reported to have taken place in Derby last night, and are currently investigating," an ECB spokesperson said. "We will provide a further update when possible."
The incident is believed to have occurred after Durham's victory over Derbyshire in the County Championship, where Carse took two wickets.
