They had been chanting his name all evening — Over-ton, Over-ton — even as Josh Inglis was taking CSK apart. Overton stood there, 6 feet 5 inches of him, and asked for more.

Overton pumped his fists, cleared his throat. Three deliveries after that, Rishabh Pant chopped on and Overton ran towards the crowd. Beyond the whistles, you could hear it again — Over-ton, Over-ton. Or rather, as Chepauk has made it their own: Ondra-ton. A tone-and-a-half. This is new territory for him. Back home, he has not been able to nail down a place in England’s setup. “No, not quite like it,” he said when asked …
