Matt Renshaw had scores of 128 and 29 in his two innings in the Sheffield Shield by the time Weatherald was picked ahead of him in the Ashes squad last November.
He eventually would go on to average 46.09 with two more centuries for Queensland to finish with the most impressive stats for batters that summer.
He’d also end up making his ODI and T20I debuts along the way, as recognition for his improved white-ball skills.
But just when it felt like he might have left his charge for an immediate return to the Test playing XI a bit late, the 30-year-old left-hander is right back where it all started for him nearly a decade ago.
