The Scotland squad has been named for the forthcoming T20 international series against Australia.

All fifteen players selected for this summer's ICC Men's T20 World Cup are available to play during the series and will be joined by recent new caps Charlie Cassell andJasper Davidson in a seventeen-strong squad.

Scotland will host Australia in three T20 internationals on September 4, 6 & 7 atThe Grange. Tickets for all three fixtures are on sale now.

The sides will meet in Edinburgh just three months after their clash in St Lucia at the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, when Australia won a thrilling match by 5 wickets.

Doug Watson, Scotland Men's Head Coach, said: “I’m hugely excited. 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. 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.

“After coming into the squad at CWCL2 and doing so well, it'll be great for Jasper and Charlie to have the experience of what it’s like playing against the best, in front of a fairly large crowd.

“I think the key thing is the guys are really competing for places. 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. It truly was a fantastic innings, he hit the ball so well, and it was so good to see him at his best.

"The goal for us is to win this series. The first game is really important – if we can win that, it’ll set up the next two matches. The whole week will be brilliant for the squad, staff, supporters, and all of Scotland."
