Batsman Richie Berrington was not considered due to injury, while the veteran Kyle Coetzer will return as captain. Trio Gordon Drummond, Gordon Goudie and Moneeb Iqbal have been overlooked.

"The challenge for us, regardless of the opposition, is to continue to display the strong, positive mentality which was the cornerstone of our recent success.
"With the World Cup to look forward to in under a year, this game will be a great chance for us to test ourselves at the type of level we want to be successful at moving forward. I hope the occasion is a memorable one for Scottish cricket."
