Wellington: Injury-prone all-rounder Jacob Oram and out-of-favour Scot Styris was on Tuesday named in the 15-member New Zealand squad for the Twenty20 World Cup to be held in England this June.
The Kiwi selectors, however, dropped all-rounder Grant Elliott and medium-pacer Tim Southee from the squad.
Although Oram played a part in the five-match One-day series against India, he missed the Tests against India since he was not fully fit.
Styris, on the other hand, last played for New Zealand in December against the West Indies. New Zealand selector Glenn Turner said they included Oram in the squad hoping that he would regain full fitness before the biennial event.
The selectors have also included wicket-keeper batsman Peter McGlashan, who played in the ODI series against India, and uncapped all-rounder Brendon Diamanti.
The Daniel Vettori-led New Zealand side will travel to England in the middle of May and will play practice matches against India on June 1 and Australia on June 2 before the tournament kicks off on June 5.
Squad: Daniel Vettori (c), Brendon McCullum (vc & wk), Peter McGlashan (wk), Neil Broom, Martin Guptill, Jacob Oram, Ross Taylor, Jesse Ryder, Ian Butler, Brendon Diamanti, James Franklin, Scott Styris, Nathan McCullum, Kyle Mills, Iain O'Brien.
