Jacob Oram on the radio this morning being quizzed about the rumoured rift between team and coach at CD was very funny, Is there a rift? "well im not in a position to comment, which will tell you what my comment should be" When will you be in a position to comment? "Ummm ahh well umm ahh talk to Blair Furlong" Great radio.

I would not be disappointed if he did leave CD based on acouple of incidents at the recent game in Dunedin. One he strode the boundary with an arrogance and began sledging the Otago players which lead to a delay while the umpires dealt with it. Two after a pretty harmless "Not smiling so much now are we, Dermot" comment from the crowd he gave the person the fingers pretty obviously in an area with a high number of kids. Thats makes me think he is areal t**ser.

Big Jake also said he would defo choose CD over Chennai for Champions League
Not sure if he can do that. I say that because with B McCullum and the Volts we were told in the Otago Daily Times that if Kolkata quailfied for the Champions League (which they didn't), it was written in McCullums contract that he had to play for Knight Riders who would in turn pay Otago some sort of compensation. Obviously I have no idea whether this was a blanket rule or specific to McCullum. This issue of course never arose becuase KKR never made it but just saying.
