London, May 31 (Reporter) England's bowling all-rounder Jamie Overton will miss the remainder of the West Indies ODIs due to a broken right little finger.
The all-rounder sustained the injury during England’s first ODI victory at Edgbaston on Thursday.
Overton had scored a solitary run with the bat before picking three wickets during the West Indies innings. Playing in just his sixth ODI, Overton's 3/22 were his best bowling figures in the format to date.
