Northampton Saints' centre Rory Hutchinson has been named in the Scotland side to face Ireland in their Six Nations opener this Saturday (kick-off 4.15pm).
Heading to Dublin to get the championship underway, Hutchinson – who made his international debut this summer after a stand-out season in Black, Green and Gold – will be looking to claim his fourth Scotland cap if he enters the action from the bench.
Scotland Head Coach, Gregor Townsend, said: “We have managed to cover a lot of work in the two weeks we’ve been together and we’ve been impressed with how our players have taken on information and bonded as a team.
"Our goal is always to play to our potential. The challenge to do this starts on Saturday against Ireland."
