ODI & T20I kit

As of 4 September 2025

TheScotland national men's cricket team represents the country ofScotland in international cricket. They play most of their home matches atThe Grange, Edinburgh, as well as at other venues around Scotland. Scotland's history in cricket dates back to the 18th century, and during the 19th and 20th centuries they frequently played touring teams and counties. In 1992, the Scottish Cricket Union severed links with theECB and in 1994 they becameAssociate Members of theInternational Cricket Council (ICC).[6] The Scottish Cricket Union changed its name toCricket Scotland in 2001.[7]

Scotland have played in threeODI World Cups (1999, 2007 and 2015) and fiveT20 World Cup tournaments (2007, 2009, 2016, 2021 and 2022). However, their first win in either of these events did not come until they beatHong Kong in the2016 T20 World Cup.[8] Scotland have played in everyICC Intercontinental Cup tournament, winning the inaugural edition in2004. In April 2018, the ICC decided to grant fullTwenty20 International (T20I) status to all its members. Therefore, allTwenty20 matches played between Scotland and otherICC members after 1 January 2019 are a full T20I.[9]

History

[edit]

Before ICC Membership

[edit]

The first recorded cricket match in Scotland took place inAlloa in 1785.[10] It would be another eighty years, however, before Scotland's national side played their first full match, against the English countySurrey in 1865, which they won by 172 runs.[11] The first Scottish Cricket Union was formed in 1879, and the national team beatAustralia by 7 wickets three years later.[12][13] The cricket union became defunct in 1883, and Grange Cricket Club took over the administration of the game until 1909. The first match againstIreland took place inDublin in 1888, with Ireland winning.[14]

Scotland played their first match to be awardedfirst-class status against the touring Australians in 1905, with the Scottish side being captained to a draw byHubert Johnston.[15] They also played South Africa, West Indies, an all-Indian team, and New Zealand before the start of World War II.[16] 1948 saw Australia visit Scotland for two games at the end of their tour of England. These games, both of which Australia won by an innings, were to be the last international games forDon Bradman. The Don signed off in typical style, making a fine unbeaten 123 in the second match.[17] In 1954, Scotland hosted a three-match to the touringPakistanis, which they lost by 10 wickets.[18] Five years later, they heldIndia to a draw.[19]

The Pakistanis returned to Scotland in 1971, winning inSelkirk by 154 runs.[20] The following year, Scotland gave the touring Australia side a scare in a low-scoring match, before succumbing to a six-wicket defeat.[21] Scotland hosted New Zealand in 1978, losing by an innings and 157 runs.[22]

English domestic cricket

[edit]

As well as hosting touring sides, Scotland frequently played English first-class counties in the post-war period, and took part in theBenson & Hedges Cup for the first time in 1980.[23] After enduring several winless seasons, their first Benson & Hedges victory came againstLancashire in 1986.[24] Their second win came in 1990 when they beatNorthamptonshire, a match in which a 20-year-oldDougie Brown took three wickets.[25] When the tournament was reduced to the top eightCounty Championship teams for the 1999 season, they were unable to qualify and they did not rejoin the competition thereafter. In 1983, they took part in theNatWest Trophy. Their first win in the knockout competition came againstWorcestershire in 1998.Gavin Haynes hit 74 and Man of the MatchCraig Wright took 5/23 as Scotland sealed a famous four-run victory.[26]

Inthe following season, they made it to the third round of an expanded version of the competition, beatingNottinghamshire Cricket Board andDorset County Cricket Club before losing toSurrey in the Third Round. When the tournament was rebranded theCheltenham & Gloucester Trophy, Scotland were unable to take part in the 2001 edition due to their appearance in the2001 ICC Trophy. However they returned in2002, enjoying wins overMiddlesex Cricket Board and Dorset. In 2003, Scotland beat theLancashire Cricket Board before losing out toSomerset. Similarly, the following year they enjoyed success against minor countyCumberland before losing toEssex.[27]

In 2006 the tournament moved to a group stage, Scotland enjoyed a considerably better campaign, winning three games against first-class counties.[28] Between 2007 and 2009, in what was now named theFriends Provident Trophy, Scotland won one game in each season. When the Friends Provident Trophy ended, Scotland joined the Clydesdale Bank 40, registering two victories in the2010 edition. They won twice more in the2011 season, when they adopted the name Scottish Saltires. However, in thefollowing season they recorded just one victory, and their final season, in2013, was winless. Then theRoyal London Cup was launched in 2014, but no international teams were included. Since then,Cricket Scotland has expressed interest in playing in county cricket again, with theT20 Blast said to be their priority, but the Royal London Cup andThe Hundred also of interest.[29]

ICC Membership

[edit]

In 1992, Scotland severed their ties with theTest and County Cricket Board (TCCB) and England, and gainedAssociate Membership of the ICC in their own right in 1994.[6] They competed in theICC Trophy for the first time in1997, finishing third. They were denied a place in the final only byBangladesh, who were granted full ICC Membership the following year and Test Status in 2001. In the third-place playoff, they beatIreland by 51 runs, sealing their qualification for the1999 World Cup,

Although England were official hosts of the World Cup, Scotland earned the right to host two of their matches inThe Grange Club in Edinburgh.[30][31]

Scotland's first ODI was played against eventual champions Australia. While they lost the game, they were competitive and a very strong Australia team reached the target after almost 45 overs.[32]

The rest of the tournament featured some chastening defeats, however, especially to theWest Indies andNew Zealand, who raced their way to low totals. In what some described as the team's "own Cup Final",[33] the team lost narrowly to Bangladesh. Nonetheless, several players went home with their reputations enhanced, includingGavin Hamilton, who scored 217 runs at 54.25 andJohn Blain, who took 10 wickets at 21.00.

The2001 ICC Trophy saw them finish 4th, losing a play-off game toCanada,[34] but they won the2005 tournament, beating long-time rivals Ireland in the final. In 2004, Scotland further staked their claim as one of the leading associate nations by winning the inauguralIntercontinental Cup. However, they did not progress beyond the first round in the 2005 tournament.[35]

2006

[edit]
Scotland'sRyan Watson plays through backward point for a boundary against India at Glasgow'sTitwood ground, 16 August 2007

March 2006 saw Scotland embark on a pre-season tour toBarbados. They performed with some credit, although they only won one of their 6 games, against a Barbados XI.[36] They owed much of their success to Nik Morton, who re-qualified to represent Scotland internationally in 2004. They competed in theC & G Trophy inEnglish domestic cricket in the early part of the2006 English cricket season. They performed better than expected, winning three of their nine games, and finishing eighth in the Northern conference.[37]

In June, they played their first ODI since the1999 World Cup when they took onPakistan in Edinburgh.[38] Without key players Dougie Brown andNavdeep Poonia, they lost by five wickets.[39] They finally got their first ODI win in theEuropean Championships in August with a win overHolland in a rain-shortened game.[40] They again missed key players for some games in this tournament though, and thanks to their loss against Ireland, finished second in the tournament.[41]

During 2006 and early 2007, Scotland participated in the third edition of theIntercontinental Cup. They beatNamibia by an innings in May 2006, but draws against Ireland in August and theUnited Arab Emirates in January 2007 meant that they failed to reach the final.[42] In December 2006, they travelled to Test nationBangladesh for a two-match ODI series – their first outside the UK – but lost both matches heavily.[43]

2007

[edit]

In January 2007, after the Intercontinental Cup match against United Arab Emirates inSharjah, they travelled toKenya, first playing in atri-series againstCanada andKenya inMombasa, where they finished second.[44] This was followed byDivision One of theWorld Cricket League inNairobi, where Scotland finished as runners up.[45]

They then travelled toWest Indies for their secondWorld Cup. They again lost all their games and failed to progress beyond the first round.[46] Back in the UK, they competed in theFriends Provident Trophy, their only win coming against Lancashire.[47] They also drew an Intercontinental Cup match against United Arab Emirates.[48] An ODI against Pakistan in July was washed out.[49]

In July, Scotland took part in aquadrangular series in Ireland against the hosts, Holland andWest Indies. However, the endeavour was not a success. They lost their matches against Ireland and West Indies, with the match against Holland being abandoned due to rain.[50]

At the beginning of August, Scotland were on Intercontinental Cup duty as they beat Holland by an innings and 59 runs. They then drew with Ireland in a rain-affected match, only gaining 3 points after a poor 1st innings display.India were Scotland's next ODI opponents in mid-August, which was shown live on BBC Scotland from Titwood, Glasgow. The match was reduced slightly to 46 overs after a couple of brief showers, but India won by 7 wickets.[51]

Having reached the final of theWorld Cricket League earlier in the year, Scotland qualified to play in theTwenty20 World Championship held in South Africa. They lost by 51 runs to Pakistan in their first game, and did not get a chance to play their other Group D opponentsIndia, as the game was washed out without a ball being bowled.[52][53]

2008

[edit]

In July 2008, Scotland played atri-series against New Zealand and Ireland inAberdeen, Scotland. Scotland beat Ireland but lost their match against New Zealand.[54]

In early August, Scotland participated with five other Associate nations in the2009 ICC World Twenty20 Qualifier in Belfast. Despite an initial loss to hosts Ireland, victory against Bermuda secured a semi final slot. Throwing off the disappointment of an unexpected loss to Holland in the semi-final a few hours earlier, Scotland bounced right back for a 9 wicket victory over Kenya (who had advanced ahead of Canada), to secure third place. However, with only two nations guaranteed to progress, qualification for the2009 ICC World Twenty20 was only granted when Zimbabwe confirmed that they would not attend the tournament.

On 18 August, Scotland played their first ODI encounter against England. Hosting the Auld Enemy, at the Grange Cricket Club inEdinburgh. However the match was abandoned due to rain after less than 3 overs of England's reply to Scotland's 156/9.

In December 2008,Cricket Scotland, the governing body of Scottish cricket, took the historic act of giving three Scotland players central contracts. BowlersGordon Goudie andDewald Nel and captainRyan Watson became the first full-time professional cricketers based in Scotland. Nineteen other cricketers have been offered part-time professional deals.[55]

2009

[edit]

Scotland participated in the2009 ICC World Twenty20 in England in June 2009. They were drawn alongside Test nationsNew Zealand andSouth Africa in Group D, with both matches being played atThe Oval in London.

The first match, against New Zealand, was shortened to 7 overs per side due to rain. Scotland batted first and made 89/4, withKyle Coetzer top-scoring with 33. However, three no-balls and a dropped catch enabled New Zealand to win by seven wickets with an over to spare.[56]

In the second match, South Africa made 211/5, withAB de Villiers hitting 79 not out off only 34 balls. In response, Scotland were bowled out for 81, more than half of which was scored by Coetzer (42). The 130-run margin of defeat was the second-largest in terms of runs in a Twenty20 International.[57]

2010

[edit]

In 2010, Scotland took part in the inauguralECB 40 tournament.[58]

Scotland competed in the qualifiers in theUnited Arab Emirates, to compete for a place in the2010 ICC World Twenty20 in theWest Indies. They competed for a place withAfghanistan,Canada,Ireland,Kenya,Holland,United Arab Emirates andUSA.[59] The tournament was disappointing for Scotland, going out in the group stage without winning a single match.

Scotland's Intercontinental Cup campaign was more successful as they reached the final in December – against Afghanistan – at the bespoke new cricket stadium in Dubai. Scheduled as a four-day first-class match of two innings each side, Afghanistan won the game in eight sessions. The match was live-streamed online by Cricket Scotland in agreement with the ICC.[60]

ICC World Cup Qualifiers

[edit]

During March and April 2009 Scotland attempted to defend the ICC Trophy they won in 2005. To secure qualification for the2011 Cricket World Cup a top four place was targeted. They were also attempting to secure ODI status by finishing in the top six.

Scotland started the tournament badly by losing three of their five group games. With only the points earned against Namibia being taken through to the Super Eights, Scotland faced a difficult route to the World Cup.[61]

Scotland started the Super Eights well by beating Holland in their first match. Defeats against Kenya and Afghanistan followed. The result of which threatened Scotland's qualification for the World Cup as well as the possibility of losing their ODI status if they finished out of the top six.

Victory against United Arab Emirates in their last game, and an improved run-rate, thanks to the 122 run victory, ensured a top six place for the Scots, securing ODI status until the next round of World Cup qualifiers.

In 2012, Scotland achieved their first victory against afull member of theICC when it defeated atouringBangladesh side.[62]

International grounds

[edit]
Locations of all stadiums which have hosted an international cricket match within Scotland

Scotland currently has five grounds which have hosted internationals.

The Grange Club inEdinburgh. The club itself was founded in 1832, and the current location has been in operation since 1872. The ground seats 5,000 people and has hosted 22 ODI's and 27 T20I's, including two matches from the 1999 Cricket World Cup.[76]

Titwood inGlasgow.Clydesdale Cricket Club, which was founded in 1848, moved here in 1876. Titwood hosted its first first-class match againstMarylebone Cricket Club in July 1963. Between 1984 and 1986 the ground hosted an annual fixture againstIreland. It has hosted six ODI's, the most recent being in 2022.[77]

Cambusdoon New Ground inAyr. In 2006, Cambusdoon was approved by theInternational Cricket Council (ICC) to host ODI matches. The ground hosted Scotland's2015–17 ICC Intercontinental Cup matches betweenUnited Arab Emirates and Namibia.

Mannofield Park in Aberdeen. Mannofield was also approved for ODI matches in 2006. The ground's history dates back to 1879 whenAberdeen University played host toEdinburgh University. The ground also welcomedIreland in 1930 and was the stadium where Sir Donald Bradman, who scored his last century on British soil at the ground in 1948. It has hosted 22 ODI's and 2 T20I's. The ground has played host to 11 first-class matches, the last of which came in July 2013 when Scotland beat Kenya in the2011–2013 ICC Intercontinental Cup.

Forthill inDundee. Forthill is the home ofForfarshire Cricket Club and was opened in 1880 with a match between Forfarshire andGlenalmond College. In the 20th century several first-class matches took place there, including games against touring Indians and New Zealanders. It hosted its first ODI's in 2024, playing host to Namibia and Oman in theICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2.[78]

Notable Scottish cricketers

[edit]

Many famous cricketers have hailed from Scotland, most notably former England captain,Mike Denness, who was born inLanarkshire and represented Scotland both before and during his time atKent.

Douglas Jardine, a particularly infamous cricketer, and a man who was vilified in Australia, was born inBritish India to Scottish parents. He developedleg theory, which led to the notorious "Bodyline" Ashes series in1932-33. Despite living most of his life in England, Jardine gave his children Scottish names and asked for his ashes to be scattered in Scotland.

Arguably one of Scotland's best spinners - and also a respected journalist - wasIan Peebles,[79] who was one of theWisden Cricketers of the Year in 1931, alongsideDon Bradman.

Another Scottish spinner wasPeter Such, who took 849 first-class wickets and made 11 test appearances for England. In a 1999 test against New Zealand, Such broke the world-record for the longest duck, surviving 51 balls and allowing England to add 31 for the ninth wicket in a scrappy draw.

Brian Hardie was a major contributor to the Essex side of the 1970s and 1980s, which won fourCounty Championships, three Sunday Leagues, aBenson & Hedges Cup and aNatWest Trophy, in which he was Man of the Match after scoring 110 in a one-run victory.. The regular opening partner ofGraham Gooch, Hardie retired with more than 18,000 first class runs.

Stirling-born all-rounderDougie Brown enjoyed a fifteen-year career with Warwickshire and represented both England and Scotland.

The same was the case for all-rounderGavin Hamilton, who played for both Yorkshire and Durham in domestic cricket, and starred in the 1999 World Cup for Scotland, before playing a test for England in the same year.
