Jamie Overton, a fast bowler, has a broken finger that prevents him from playing in England’s final two one-day internationals against West Indies.
During England’s 2-1 victory in the series opener at Edgbaston on Thursday, Overton broke his little finger while attempting to take a return catch.
The 31-year-old immediately departed the field for treatment, but he returned to take three wickets and then started bowling.
No replacements have been named for the squad, with Overton making his only change from the team that beat West Indies on Thursday, earning his 10th ODI cap and first since September.
The ODI squad also includes Luke Wood and Mark Potts.
After Mark Wood, Jofra Archer, and Gus Atkinson, Overton is the latest fast bowler to miss out injured.
