Grange batter Finlay McCreath has been given a maiden full international call-up by Scotland while Carlton all-rounder Chris McBride is recalled for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2 series against the Netherlands and the United Arab Emirates.

Scotland will play five one-day internationals, two against series hosts the Dutch and three with UAE. All fixtures take place in May.

McBride, 25, last featured in 2023 and McCreath, 26, gets his chance after his century against Zimbabwe A earlier this week.
