Victoria has named a 12-player squad for its upcoming Dean Jones Trophy clash against Western Australia, with Sam Harper, Sam Elliott, Doug Warren and Brasher included.
Harper returns to Victoria's one-day side after finishing as the team's leading run-scorer during the 2025/26 campaign, providing valuable experience and firepower at the top of the order.
Elliott is also set to make his return after recovering from a hand injury, further strengthening Victoria's bowling attack.
Brasher has been rewarded for his exceptional recent form, having scored back-to-back centuries for Victoria's Second XI against New South Wales.
The inclusion continues Cricket Victoria's commitment to rewarding strong performances at Second XI level and providing opportunities for emerging talent.
Doug Warren has also been included in the squad, adding further depth to Victoria's bowling options.
Matt Short (hip), Campbell Kellaway (back spasms), Austin Anlezark (Sheffield Shield workload) and Oliver Peake (ODI commitments) are unavailable for selection.
Victorian Head Coach Chris Rogers said the inclusions provided a timely boost ahead of the clash with Western Australia.
"It's great to welcome Sam Harper and Sam Elliott back into the squad, while the form Brasher has shown at Second XI level has been outstanding.
"Back-to-back hundreds against New South Wales is a terrific achievement and exactly the sort of performance we want to reward.
"We're continuing to build depth across our squad, and this is another opportunity for players to step up and make an impact."
