Profile

Jacob Oram is another immensely talented New Zealand player in the long list, whose career has been continuously hampered by various injuries. A tall all-rounder, Jacob Oram is an exciting cricketer to watch. Being a power-house batsman, the southpaw has the capability to smash the ball out of the ground. Considering his 1.98m height, Oram is surprisingly an agile outfielder.

The southpaw is predominantly a one-day player but has also done a fair job in Test cricket. He believes in entertaining the crowd and it is hard to keep your eyes off the action when Oram is out in the middle. He makes great use of his height and generates pace and bounce from the pitch at his will. Oram has the knack of picking wickets at the right time and is capable of clocking deliveries around 140 kph.

His performance in recent Test and ODI matches have been very impressive. If Oram is able to keep himself fit, one can see New Zealand winning more matches and touching greater heights, courtesy the big all-rounder.
