I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Oram kinda floated between 6 & 7 though, going as high as 5 and as low as 8. He actually only ever played at the same spot across two matches (four innings) twice; at 6 once and at 7 once. He often changed in match as situation dictated. He played 22 innings at 6 and 23 at 7, averaging 34 and 42 respectively (2 100s vs 3 100s respectively). 6 may be a bit high considering the actual suggested quality of our 3-6, but could see him come in at 7 if the situation requires a dasher and not the steady hand of our beloved Watling.If Neesham is to play a Jacob Oram role... well Oram batted at 6, which would currently be too high for Neesham and anyway Anderson is there (and also provides overs which reduce the comparative value of Neesham's bowling).
