Profile

Craig Overton has had an identical development to his brother Jamie, his identical twin. The pair were brought up playing for North Devon CC and Devon age-groups before joining the Somerset academy. Craig is an allrounder and has had a few more opportunities in the Somerset first XI as a result than his fast-bowling brother.
