The England team have made one addition to their 15-member squad ahead of the decisive final ENG Vs IND Test at Oval, slated to start from July 31.
With the workload being a major concern, especially that of the fast bowlers, the Three Lions have added Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Jamie Overton. Notably, Overton has made just a solitary Test appearance so far and will play his first red-ball game for England since 2022 if brought into the playing XI.
After the recent draw at Manchester, skipper Ben Stokes had already hinted the need for fresh legs after England’s bowlers shouldered a heavy workload, sending down 257.1 overs across two innings.
