England decided to add to her team Jamie Overton for the upcoming fifth test against India, which will begin 31. The hosts hope that the series in London will bake the fifth test because they frustrated them in Manchester. Overton made only one appearance for England in the tests and returned in 2022 to New Zealand.
During the match Overton scored 97 runs and raised two goals, but since then he has been frozen from the test team settings. Since then, Overton has established himself as a white ball specialist who has played in the T20 leagues around the world, including the Indian Premier League. So far he has played 6 ODI and 12 T20i.
In addition to adding Overton, the platoon remains the same as the one they had for the Manchester test.
“The men’s selection panel in England added to the Almie Overton Surrey for the fifth Rothesay test match against India in Kia Ooval, starting on Thursday, July 31,” he read a statement from the English cricket.
Josh of the language, which was released from the team during the Manchester test, was left on the side. England will try to postpone the bitter taste of the Manchester test away on the oval because their changes to the side of the 4th test did not work out. Liam Dawson tried to have an impact in the second shift when the Indian team dug deep to finally secure the draw.
