If Smith Was To Retire, Handscomb Could Be Stable No. 4 In Tests: Chris Rogers
Speaking to Fox Cricket’s Domesticated, Rogers believes that when Smith eventually retires, the national selectors will not need to look any further than Handscomb for a strong replacement.
”If he got the chance again, I think he’d be much better prepared,” Rogers said of Handscomb. “If Smith was to retire and there was that opportunity needed for a stable Test No. 4, I think that could definitely be Pete. Hopefully he keeps scoring runs for us and things play out and he gets another opportunity to get Test level," he added.
