I think the whole Franklin/Oram thing is as yet a non-issue... Because:

Franklin is yet to reach a stage with his fitness where he can perform as a 3rd/4th test seamer... though there is little doubt that in a month or three he will. You could argue his bowling is stronger than Jake's, so if his batting steps up what do you do?

Oram is yet to reach a stage with his fitness where he can perform as a 3rd/4th test seamer... and there is some doubt whether he will... will/can he make the team as a batsman who bowls a bit, or not at all? And if so, at who's expense? Flynn? Ryder? Fulton? (ok, the last one was optimistic, though I'd love to see 2MP get a good ton in Adelaidel).
