Jacob Oram's decision to quit Tests to prolong his limited-overs career is a smart one, because he knows his time at the top is running out, writes David Leggat in the New Zealand Herald. It also gives Daniel Vettori the chance to claim the top allrounder's role.
Oram didn't fancy giving away bowling to take his chances as a specialist batsman. He had been a two-for-one player for the last 10 years. Putting away the bowling boots was not on.
