Devon Conway — Batsman | Cricket Player Profile, Stats & Records

If all goes well, Devon Conway could be the second player of South African origin to represent New Zealand. An attacking left-handed batsman who relished batting at the top in limited-overs cricket, Conway is also an efficient wicket-keeper. Born and brought up in South Africa, Conway made a shift to New Zealand in 2017. With close to 100 First-class games and 70 List A games to his credit, Conway was already an established name in South Africa's domestic circuit and he hopes the experience gained there would help him in the new country. One of his biggest strengths is his adaptability across formats. On arriving in New Zealand, Conway joined the University Club and gradually started plying his trade in the Super Smash for the Wellington Firebirds. He was mostly a standby in the initial days with the odd game in between but first-choice keeper Tom Blundell's national call up allowed Conway more game time, thereby pushing his case further. Thereafter, he represented Wellington in all three formats of New Zealand's domestic season and has had reasonable success. Conway will be eligible to represent New Zealand from September 2020.
