Brydon Carse: I wanted toe amputated, but doctors said I need it to balance
Brydon Carse, the England all-rounder, says he became so frustrated with a persistent toe injury that he contemplated having it amputated. One of England's success stories of the winter, the Durham fast bowler was ruled out after the first game of the Champions Trophy in February, having attempted to manage an injury to the second toe on his left foot for several months of a breakthrough period. He was back in action in a County Championship match for Durham last month, followed by a return to international cricket in the three-match one-day series against West Indies, but he spoke on Thursday of just how big an issue the injury to the toe on his landing foot had become. 'It ended up being quite a severe wound, which I was playing with for the majority of the winter,' Carse, 29, said. 'The wound became infected a couple of times and for a period of about six to eight weeks I was on three or four different courses of antibiotics. Eventually the wound was so deep that it ultimately needed a period of time just to heal and close up.'
