Centurion Peter Handscomb is expecting an "absolute grind" in the field as his team pursues 10 fourth-day wickets in the Sheffield Shield clash with South Australia at Karen Rolton Oval.
Handscomb, last summer's leading Shield run-scorer with 697 at 49.78, has started the new campaign strongly, stroking a wonderful 132 before declaring Victoria's innings closed at 7-344 inside the last hour on Saturday.
