England All-Rounder Ruled Out of West Indies ODIs and T20Is After CSK Stint in IPL 2025

England all-rounder Jamie Overton has been ruled out of the ODI and T20I series against the West Indies after suffering a fracture in the right little finger during the first match at Edgbaston. Before the unfortunate injury, Overton was in brilliant form against the WI in their first 50-over fixture. He bagged three wickets in 5.2 overs at the lowest economy of 4.12 that day.

Previously, two other England pacers, Jofra Archer and Gus Atkinson, were also sidelined from the series for sustaining injuries. A right thumb injury restricted Archer from participating in this series, while a right hamstring strain during England’s one-off Test against Zimbabwe last week ruled out Atkinson.

ECB Statement for Jamie Overton

The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has stated that the pacer will be going through rehabilitation under their medical team’s supervision. They will not add any replacement for Overton in their 50-over squad against the WI.

“He will now undergo a period of rehabilitation under the supervision of the England medical team. No replacement will be added to the ODI squad.” read a statement from the ECB.
