Jamie Overton will make his England Test debut in the third and last Test of the series against New Zealand at Headingley after he was picked in the XI as a swap for the harmed James Anderson.
"Tragically Jimmy's not pulled up however much we might want to so Jamie Overton will make his introduction this week," Stokes said during his pre-match public interview
Overton, 28, has been in fine structure for Surrey in the County Championship this season, having taken 21 wickets from 5 games at a normal of 21.61. He will, nonetheless, not take the field with his twin sibling Craig, who he looked in the Championship barely a week ago. Craig and Jamie have been in line to turn into the primary arrangement of twin siblings to address England in Test cricket.
Overton's consideration for the last Test is the main change for England in a series they've proactively secured. The veteran Anderson, who has a slight lower leg issue, will require the downtime to recover in front of the vital rescheduled Test against India beginning on July 1 at Edgbaston.
England XI for Leeds Test: Alex Lees, Zak Crawley, Ollie Pope, Joe Root, Jonny Bairstow, Ben Stokes (C), Ben Foakes, Matty Potts, Jamie Overton, Stuart Broad, Jack Leach
