New Zealand Cricket Appoints Jacob Oram As New Bowling Coach

Former New Zealand all-rounder Jacob Oram has been named the senior men’s cricket team of the Black Caps’ new bowling coach. After Shane Jurgensen left in November 2023, he will take over in that role. On October 7, right before the much awaited Test series against India, Oram will start his new role.

With this appointment, Oram’s coaching career reaches a major turning point, and he will be in charge of leading the Black Caps’ bowling attack.

Oram’s extensive background as a player and coach makes him a strong candidate to guide the group to victory. The India Test series, which looks to be an exciting competition, will be his first task.

Fans will be closely observing Oram’s influence on the Black Caps‘ performance as the squad looks to get off to a fast start under his leadership.
