Cricket Scotland can confirm that Maryam Faisal has been added to the squad for the upcoming ICC Women's Cricket World Cup Qualifier, in place of Ellen Watson who has withdrawn for personal reasons.

 

Faisal last represented Scotland in the Netherlands last year, where she was a member of the squad that won both the ODI and T20I tri-series.
