England’s Jamie Overton takes ‘indefinite break’ from red-ball cricket

England’s Jamie Overton takes ‘indefinite break’ from red-ball cricket

Jamie Overton, a member of England's Test squad during the series against India, has announced that he is taking an indefinite break from first-class cricket. Overton cited the demands of playing cricket across 12 months as the reason for his decision, stating that it is no longer possible for him to commit fully to all formats at every level. This decision means that Overton will not be available for the upcoming Ashes tour in Australia. Instead, he will be able to fulfill his contract with the Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League, where he was named the team's MVP earlier this year after a successful 2024-25 season.
