3-month break no excuse to underperform says http://www.senore.com/Cricket/JDP-Oram-c1681-Cricket News Update
The Kiwis have not played an international match in the last 3 months however, New Zealand’s veteran all-rounder, Jacob Oram, thinks that the break will count as little excuse if his side  underperforms in the two matches T20 series in Florida against the
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760.
''Everyone should be fresh and fit after three months of just gym work, running the roads and bowling indoors, the key now is turning that fitness into match performances and I think that's always the hard thing.” he was quoted as saying by stuff.co.nz.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757 which ended on 27th March and the last T20Is played by the Kiwis dated back to 22 Feb. The three-match T20 series was won by the visitors’ 1-2; with the only bright spot for
the home team were http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Christopher-Alroy-Martin-c50714 Guptill’s performances with the bat.
Before landing in the United States, the Black Caps’ pace-attack practiced in Brisbane for a week, and now the team will have three days to train at the venue before the two- match series commences on Saturday at the Central Broward Regional Park ground
in Lauderhill, Florida. However, Oram thought that it would be in the best of interests if they get used to the conditions at Lauderhill since the pitches will be much slower than usual.
''You can't beat actually getting to where you're going to play,” he said “the next three days are vital to our performance looking to the weekend.''
The main concern for the New Zealanders will be http://www.senore.com/Cricket/CH-Gayle-c1221, who made a comeback into the national Windies’ squad after a 15th month international exile. The left-handed batsman has scored the highest number of runs in this year’s IPL and will be playing
alongside http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sunil-Philip-Narine-c91869, who won the Player of the tournament award for IPL, bewildering the batsmen throughout the competition with his mystery spin.
 "Gayle the hottest batsman in the world at the moment, He's going to have his moments where he's on top of you. It's a test of character and a test of you as an international cricketer,” said Oram.
