Fresh from scoring 111 and 50 retired in a first-class match against Cambridge UCCE, Warwickshire’s Navdeep Poonia has again been released to play for the Scottish Saltires in the Friends Provident Trophy.

Glasgow-born Poonia will turn out for the Saltires in the home game against Yorkshire Carnegie at the Citylets Grange this Sunday (May 18).

Gordon Drummond is listed, although he is still under treatment from the medical team, and he will be assessed prior to the game. The selectors have named a 13-man Lloyds TSB Scotland squad, as follows:

Ryan Watson (Forfarshire, captain); Dewald Nel, Sean Weeraratna (both Greenock); John Blain (Rotherham); Ed Cowan (Uddingston); Gordon Drummond (Watsonians); Gordon Goudie (West of Scotland); Gavin Hamilton (East Brierly); Neil McCallum (Grange); Navdeep Poonia (Warwickshire); Glenn Rogers (Stenhousemuir); Colin Smith (Aberdeenshire, wicket-keeper), Fraser Watts (Carlton).

Head coach Peter Steindl said: "Nav is in great form just now, and we are delighted that Warwickshire have agreed to let us use him this week. He will aid our batting and help us to compete against Darren Gough’s impressive Yorkshire Carnegie side."

Once again, children under the age of 18 on 1 April will be admitted to watch the match free if accompanied by a paying adult.
