In cricket, an 'over' is a series of deliveries of the ball to the batsmen and this is a standard form in crossword clues. A 'draft' is a body of men, especially in the military sense. Together, as 'overdraft', the new word means a facility to borrow money for a period from a bank. Such borrowing obviously 'attracts interest'.
I'd be pretty astonished if that answer was wrong, but I hope you managed to get the answer to 3D elsewhere, Lottie. Cheers
