Craig Overton has been called into the England one-day international squad for the upcoming tour of New Zealand.

Overton, who made his Test debut during the Ashes campaign, is summoned to replace Liam Plunkett, who has been forced out of the trip due to injury.

Plunkett sustained a hamstring injury during the T20 Tri Series and has returned to the UK to begin his rehabilitation.

The Yorkshire bowler has been diagnosed with a grade one tear.

Overton has yet to play white-ball cricket for his country, though he was included in the squad for a three-match T20 series against South Africa last year.

The Somerset seamer has an average of 34.94 over the course of his List A career, which spans 51 matches, and has an economy rate of 5.28.

England are due to begin the series against New Zealand in Hamilton on Sunday.

Further matches follow on February 28, March 3, March 7 and March 10.
