Chris McBride is with the Scotland Men's squad in Namibia for ICC league matches.

From Dumfries junior to Scotland. Chris is back in the Scotland Men's squad which has flown out to Namibia. The club are proud of all Chris's hard work.

"Teenage wicket-keeper Tom Mackintosh and all-rounder Chris McBride have been added to the Scotland setup for the trip to Namibia."

"McBride made his senior debut for Scotland earlier this year and played in the one-day international fixtures in Aberdeen in August."

"Scotland flew out to Namibia this week and will face the hosts and Nepal in a tri-series. A positive run of results could see them advance to the World Cup qualifier in Zimbabwe next year."

Star of our Zoom online lockdown Quiz (ask Tony) and Scotland Coach Shane Burger says "I’m looking forward to seeing what he (McMullen) can do on this trip and when you throw him in with Tom Mackintosh and Chris McBride, they are most definitely the future of Scottish cricket.”

“For Chris, it’s great to see the hard work he’s put in over the last few months. He’s had a few opportunities recently and he might not have done as well as he would have wanted to, but there’s a chance on this trip for him to set the record straight."

“There’s a ‘no-fear’ mentality with those sorts of players, which is great.”

Scotland’s first match in the Namibia series is versus the hosts on 1st December in Windhoek (7.30am GMT) and following that they will play Nepal (4th), Namibia (5th) and Nepal (8th). All matches in the series will be broadcast on ICC TV.
