"It's a learning curve and people who understand rugby realise that. My confidence is not going to dip and I know what I can produce. I didn't expect to be a world-class player seven games into my return but I did expect to be producing some sort of form and it's only been in glimpses. I'm going to make sure that when I am back at Wasps I am consistent."
Cipriani believes he will play some part against New Zealand and said: "If I come on I would love to score the winning try. I am going to analyse my matches in this series and learn from them."
Team manager Johnson insisted the young No10 still had a "huge international future".
Johnson said: "He [Cipriani] has been inconsistent in games but you have to recognise that most guys wouldn't be on the pitch at just 21.
"We have been realistic about his comeback from injury and he did fantastically well to do it in such a short space of time."
Lock Simon Shaw has lost his place to Nick Kennedy while flanker Tom Rees, despite being outstanding against South Africa, makes way for Michael Lipman.
Johnson said: "Tom had his best game of the series but has started in all three of them and Michael is fresh."
