Kyle Coetzer, the 23 year old Durham batsman, has been recalled to the Scotland squad for their one-dayer against Pakistan on Sunday, July 1.

Dougie Brown, their veteran allrounder, has also been included in a 13-man squad along with Gordon Drummond.

"Every game we play at this level gives us a chance to improve our world rankings, so it is a significant event for our players," Ryan Watson, the Scotland captain said. "Last year, we made the Pakistanis work hard for their victory. We would like to go one better this time."

It was largely down to Watson's muscular 80 that Pakistan were made to work for their victory last year, in the one-off match at Edinburgh. And the match also represents a vital warm-up for Pakistan, too, who face India two days later in Glasgow.
