Lyle Robertson earns first Scotland call-up for World Cup League 2

Scotland handed Lyle Robertson his first senior call-up for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 series against Canada and the UAE. Ihsan and Jones are back in the squad. BBC Sport broke the news on Friday.

The three-match series is part of Scotland's build-up to the 2027 ODI World Cup qualifiers. At 22, Robertson's impressed with his all-round work in domestic List A cricket this season. He adds depth to the middle order and spin options.

The squad assembles next week before heading to the UAE for the opening fixture. Scotland sit third in the table and need consistent results if they're to secure direct qualification for 2027.
