Scotland have selected a 37-man squad for their Guinness Six Nations clash with England at Murrayfield on Saturday.
Duncan Weir retains his place in Gregor Townsend’s selection as the Worcester Warrior man continues in place of Finn Russell.
There is no room in the squad for Darcy Graham, however, and he misses out with a knee injury.
Both Scotland and England will be looking to bounce back from respective losses against Ireland and France on the Championship’s opening weekend.
Last year’s meeting between the teams was a classic as they played out a 38-38 draw last season and Scotland will be looking to claim the Calcutta Cup for the third year on the spin.
Both England and Scotland will start the game with a point to their names after picking up losing bonus points in their first matches.
