Scotland name squad for upcoming Australia T20I series

Australia will tour Scotland for a three-game T20I series from 4-7 September.

Richie Berrington will lead an experienced 17-member squad for the upcoming home series against Australia. The visit by Australia, a full-member nation, will provide an opportunity for Scotland to test and showcase their skills at the highest level.

The two sides last locked horns in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, where Scotland went down fighting in their final group game, losing to Australia by five wickets.

Squad: Richie Berrington (C), Charlie Cassell, Matthew Cross, Bradley Currie, Jasper Davidson, Chris Greaves, Oli Hairs, Jack Jarvis, Michael Jones, Michael Leask, Brandon McMullen, George Munsey, Safyaan Sharif, Chris Sole, Charlie Tear, Mark Watt, Bradley Wheal

Scotland’s ranks include young pacer Charlie Cassell, who made a sensational ODI debut career last month and was one of the nominees for ICC Men's Player of the Month for July 2024.

He picked a record haul of 7/21 against Oman in his very first match, which were the best figures by a debutant in ODI cricket history.
