    England have been forced into making one change for the 2nd ODI against West Indies as Jamie Overton has been ruled out of the series. Overton will be replaced by Matthew Potts for the second game, which will take place at Cardiff on Sunday, June 1.

    Overton suffered a fractured finger in the first ODI, which England won by 238 runs. The all-rounder broke his little finger on the right hand and will undergo rehab under the supervision of the England medical team. The ECB announced that no replacement has been added to the ODI squad for the remainder of the series against West Indies.

    “England and Surrey all-rounder Jamie Overton has been ruled out of the remaining Metro Bank One-Day Internationals and the Vitality IT20s against the West Indies due to a broken right little finger. Overton sustained the injury during England’s first Metro Bank ODI victory at Edgbaston on Thursday. 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 the statement.

    England will aim to wrap up the series in Cardiff, the first one under Harry Brook’s captaincy.

    “New England Men’s white-ball captain Harry Brook has been forced into one change after Jamie Overton was ruled out of the remainder of the series with a broken right little finger. Matthew Potts has been selected to come in as his replacement and is set to make his 10th ODI appearance for England. Victory in Cardiff would hand England series victory against the West Indies with one game to play,” read the statement.

    England Playing XI for 2nd ODI:

    Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith, Joe Root, Harry Brook (C), Jos Buttler (WK), Jacob Bethell, Will Jacks, Brydon Carse, Matthew Potts, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood
