Australia will tour Scotland for a T20I series from September 4 - here is the full list of SCO v AUS 2024 squads for the three matches.
When will the Scotland vs Australia 2024 T20Is be played?
The first match of the series will be played on September 4, followed by the second fixture on September 6 and the third on September 7. The series will be played at the Grange Cricket Club in Edinburgh.
The two sides last played each other in this year’s T20 World Cup, where Scotland gave a tough fight in their last group game, losing to Australia by five wickets. That was the only instance they have met in the T20 format.
SCO vs AUS 2024 T20Is: Team news
Richie Berrington will captain a 17-member Scotland squad featuring young Charlie Cassell. The fast-bowler made an impressive ODI debut in July, picking up 7-21 against Oman, the best-ever figures by a debutant in the format’s history.
For Australia, Mitchell Marsh will continue as their skipper after they failed to get past the Super Eights stage in the T20 World Cup. Several members from that outfit have made it to the current squad.
However, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Glenn Maxwell have been given a break, while Josh Hazlewood missed out due to a calf strain. Hazlewood was replaced by Rilee Meredith, who had last played for Australia three years back.
Spencer Johnson also suffered an injury during The Hundred and was replaced by Sean Abbott. Cooper Connolly, meanwhile, earned his maiden international berth.
