With most airline aircraft
With most old airline aircraft the nose wheel tiller is on the left hand side...so these days..... the HANDLING PILOT calls for the 'after landing checks'

So in BA where all mainline aircraft have tillers on both sides. The above situation exists. Certainly all the A320/ 319s and 757/767/777/747-400s do.

On Boeing aircraft traditionally, and I think it is Boeing SOPs. The after landings scan is done when the HANDLING pilot places the speed brake down.

As one last thought, the afterlanding scan should be done once the aircraft has vacated the runway. When all is calm, because it has been known for the gear to be selected up, instead of the flaps being selected up!!

PS. You will also note that the views expressed by 411A were valid and current in the 1960s. Since then CRM, and the world has moved on.
