Jacob Oram
Jacob David Philip Oram (born 28 July 1978) is a former New Zealand international cricketer, who played all forms of the game for 10 years.Usually batting in the middle to lower order, Oram's bowling has been more successful in the shorter format—reaching as high as 5 in the ICC ODI Player Rankings.[3] He injured his left ring finger in an ODI prior to the World Cup, and, on 28 February, with the tournament just weeks away, he revealed that he would be willing to have it amputated in order to play cricket.During the 2011 World Cup quarter final he took arguably the best catch of the tournament, off Jacques Kallis, a blinder on the mid-wicket boundary to prevent a six and with 4 for 39 helped the Black Caps take a well deserved victory against a favourite South African side.[6][7] On 2 September 2009, Oram took a hat-trick against Sri Lanka in a Twenty20 International in Colombo,[8] dismissing Angelo Mathews, Malinga Bandara and Nuwan Kulasekara.
