@Chris where did you find that info?
It was sent to me by Cricket Australia yesterday, they send out that sort of stuff to Coaches at Rep level and above.
It probably is on line somewhere by now I would think.It was on reddit before I even woke up yesterday

Heading in to the Series against Pakistan,SA and Australia the biggest concern for me is the dramatic drop off in form of Devon Conway, since the opening game in the WC he has not achieved much,
Watching him bat yesterday were he was dropped 2 balls in a row the snicked off on the 3rd delivery was concerning 3 poor shots in a row is un Conway like.
11 ODi and 2 tests and a game for Welinington since then and he has looked out of form by a big margin. -

Yeah for whatever reason we do have a few guys that start with a hiss and a roar and peter out to become pretty ordinary test players ( not “bad” as such but ordinary )
Aside from Paddy Batch others that come to mind are Matthew Sinclair, Craig McMillan and Lou Vincent.
Perhaps John Reid and Jesse Ryder would have been of that ilk if they’d had longer careers.
A pretty important year coming up for Conway that’s for sure.

I have managed to watch a bit of Super Smash this year and one thing that is apparent to me is that despite all the knashing about who should or shouldn't be in the Black Caps, the selectors have pretty much selected the best players. I can't think of any standouts that haven't been given a chance.
The number of chances given to certain players over others is debatable though, but even then I can see their reasoning most of the time.

Guppy
At test level he didn’t actually start that well did he ?

@Chris yeah he's not in form but hasn't played much lately. I think he needs more time in the middle now, same with Ravindra.
Not worried about Conway, form is temporary, class is permanent and all that.

It worries me a bit, it is his trend of his dismissals that worry me.
He had a bad run since that WC opener 9 ODI and 4 test innings and a Wellington 20/20 were Conway failed that is 14 innings in a row.
That inside edge dismissal is coming in to play along with being bowled around off stump a bit maybe teams are working him out, with playing a bit too far away from his body and the lack of foot movement.
I hope he sorts it out we need Conway in form I am sure Devon and the coaches are analysing what is going on.
You see it a lot a flying start to international cricket then teams put a lot of work in to analysing any flaws in your technique and everyone has them.
