Cricket: Watts holds Scotland place for Bangladesh clash

Carlton's Fraser Watts has retained his place in Scotland's cricket squad for Monday's one-day international against Bangladesh at Titwood, Glasgow.

Opener Watts signalled a return to form after being dropped for much of the representative season by hitting 98 in Saturday's world league final against Ireland.

Also included are Carlton colleagues Preston Mommsen, Ross Lyons and Gordon Drummond, who captains the team.

Neil McCallum flies the flag for Grange and selectors have been able to call up English county players Kyle Coetzer (Durham) and Josh Davey (Middlesex) while former England Test all-rounder Gavin Hamilton (ex-Yorkshire and Durham) plays for the first time under new skipper Drummond.

It will be the first ICC one-day International between the sides on Scottish soil since the World Cup in 1999 - the only other official meetings being the two matches at Chittagong and Mirpur in December 2006.

The 14 man Scotland squad is: Gordon Drummond (captain), Richie Berrington, Kyle Coetzer, Josh Davey, Gordon Goudie, Gavin Hamilton, Majid Haq, Moneeb Iqbal, Dougie Lockhart, Ross Lyons, Neil McCallum, Preston Mommsen, Matthew Parker, Fraser Watts.
