EDINBURGH: Scotland handed South African-born winger Duhan van der Merwe a first cap when coach Gregor Townsend yesterday named his team for the Test against Georgia at Murrayfield tomorrow.
Front row forward Oli Kebble, another uncapped South African-born player, is listed among the replacements for the warm-up international ahead of the Oct. 31 Six Nations clash with Wales at Llanelli. Both had qualified through residency in recent weeks and been quickly incorporated into the team.
Fraser Brown will captain the side for the first time with James Lang lining up at inside centre, having last featured in mid-2018.
