Newly capped Charlie Cassell and Jasper Davidson have been included in Scotland men’s squad for next month’s T20 international series with Australia.
Australia-raised Cassell, 25, took seven wickets on his debut as Scotland defeated Oman in World Cup League 2 in July, a series Davidson also featured in.
Chris Sole is included after missing recent matches while Oli Hairs is promoted from Scotland A.
Doug Watson’s side will take on Australia at the Grange in Edinburgh on 4, 6 and 7 September, with all fixtures starting at 14:00 BST.
“It’s a wonderful opportunity to play one of the best teams in the world, and I’m pretty sure that our players won’t need any motivating for this series,” said Watson.
“It’s a great opportunity for them to share the field with world-class players. They’re wanting to put in some huge performances and compete and really push this Australia team.
“I’ve got to mention Oli Hairs, who didn’t play at the World Cup, but then made that brilliant 255 for Scotland A against Oman.
“The key thing is the guys are really competing for places. The goal for us is to win this series. The whole week will be brilliant for the squad, staff, supporters, and all of Scotland.”
