England to play ODI against Scotland
LONDON, July 13: England will play Scotland in a One-day International for the first time next year, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Friday. The match has provisionally been scheduled for Aug 18 and a further match has been arranged for 2012 depending on Scotland's continued status as an ODI-playing nation.
“Having the full England side in Scotland for an ODI next year will give the game a huge boost and I am sure our cricketing public will be looking forward to welcoming the England team,” said Roddy Smith, Chief Executive of Cricket Scotland.
Scotland were given ODI status in the early 2006. Both countries are also competing in this year's inaugural Twenty20 World Championship to be played in South Africa in September.—Reuters
