Scarlets second row Alex Craig has been named in Scotland’s 37-man squad for the Skyscanner Americas Tour this summer.
Craig has enjoyed an outstanding first season in Llanelli since his move from Gloucester and is in contention to add to his two previous caps in the forthcoming Tests against Canada, USA, Chile and Uruguay.
The Skyscanner Americas Tour begins in North America where Scotland will play the Canadians in Ottawa on Saturday, July 6, before journeying to Washington DC to take on USA six days later. South America is the third stop on Scotland’s travels as they return to Chile having played in Santiago in 2022. The tour will end in Uruguay where the two sides will play each other for the first time since the 1999 Rugby World Cup.
