I'd probably pick How over him. But Guptill is obviously going to have a long international (and test IMO) career so I don't mind him cutting his teeth at that level and averaging 30 or just below for a few years in order to improve and come of age as a player. This is a better solution than not playing him for someone at the peak of their form and talent who would average just over 30 and never have the capacity to improve,. (most NZ batsmen outside of Taylor, Ryder and McCullum since Fleming and Astle tbh)
