Is this the first time in history Handscomb didn't make a first innings century against South Australia?
Last time he did this, it was in 2020-21.

1st Innings scores v SA since than are: 12, 10, 7, 1.

To be fair, the first two were followed up in the 2nd innings scores of 148 not out and 132. :)
 
Liam Scott opening the bowling and Merlo opening the batting in the same game. What a time to be alive.

It's taken a while but I do see a bit in Liam Scott, think he looks handy with the stick. But yes him opening the bowling isn't ideal. I could see him turning into a Hilton Cartwright type player.

If these two fail, they should be dumped and Jake back home.
Thank Christ you're nowhere near CV. Jake would not be welcome back by any of the players, let me tell you that much.
 
Going on his previous knocks, he must be playing for the draw every time he walks out there.
He struggles to turn over the strike at this level. It's his biggest issue. I'd be giving Brasher a crack next game.
 
Why not use Rogers as a opener,bats there for Ringwood I think.
Only in one day now. Bats 3/4 in two days cricket. Brasher has a stack of runs in Grade cricket opening.
 
Harry Dixon is another option as a opener,most likely need 2 new openers.Not a great fan of Merlo as a opener either.
Not yet for me. Still needs work.
