Opener Devon Conway will miss the third Test against England, New Zealand cricket said Monday, clearing the way for the return of unwanted batter Will Young. The out-of-touch Conway is awaiting the birth of his first child so won't join the Black Caps squad in Hamilton, where the final Test of the series begins on Saturday. England hold an unassailable 2-0 lead after winning the second Test in Wellington on Sunday by 323 runs. Conway's place in the squad will be taken by middle-order batter Mark Chapman but the more experienced Young is likely to be promoted to the starting XI.
