Surely if it is the latter they can see it is not working for them and go back to the techniques/skills/advices you have taught them, from which they were successful.
Those who coach the national team will tell you that you cannot assume anything is learned completely. Most of the guys need reminding and coaching again on the same points.

If you didn't remind the bowlers what they should be doing and didn't practice it regularly, you are going to expect them to regress.

This is one of the coaching methodologies that differs from say SA, England or Australia and coaches coming from those countries need to quickly understand this. Those coaches that don't, sadly will fail - very badly.
