We can get ‘Over’ this, insists Jamie

Jamie Overton appeals unsuccessfully for an lbw against Daryl Mitchell, right, during the One Day International between New Zealand and England in Wellington

Overton was a shining light against the Black Caps amid England’s batting collapses, with a top-three of Jamie Smith, Ben Duckett and Joe Root contributing a meagre 58 runs between them in three innings.

But Overton pointed out England are still figuring out their one-day identity, having lost 11 of 15 matches this year, whereas the Test side have won 25 of 41 during head coach Brendon McCullum’s tenure.

“T wouldn't look into it too much at all,” Overton said.

“It's a completely different side.

“T know there's a few boys that are here and playing into it, butit’s a different format.

“T still think the boys are going to go really well in Australia.
