Profile:
Jacob
Oram is a bowling all-rounder who plays his cricket in the mould
of a young Chris Cairns. He has played just two One-Day
Internationals, the final two matches in The National Bank Series
against Zimbabwe in January. He averaged 21.00 with the bat and
bowled nine overs without a wicket with an economy rate a little
over 4. Oram is a tall, broad cricketer and a powerful stroke
maker. At 22 years of age he is relatively inexperienced and his
call-up was preceded by a number of injuries to incumbent players.
Regardless he did not let his talent down and is seen as a bright
light for the future.
