Former New Zealand international cricketer Tom Bruce has switched his international allegiance to Scotland.
The 34-year-old top-order batter will represent his new team in the impending Cricket World Cup League 2 matches in Canada, starting August 27.
Bruce qualified to play for Scotland through his father, who was born in Edinburgh.
He earlier played 17 T20Is for the Black Caps.
Bruce first made headlines when he smashed 223 runs with a strike rate of 140.25 for Central Districts in the 2015/16 Super Smash.
His splendid run earned him his maiden cap during the 2017 T20I series against Bangladesh.
However, he struggled to replicate that success at the international level with just two half-centuries from his 17 T20I innings.
As per a reports, Bruce had a brief stint with the Scotland Development side in 2016.
He said, "I was involved briefly in the set-up back in 2016, and it was an awesome experience."
Bruce also expressed his eagerness to help the team play consistent quality cricket and ultimately qualify for a World Cup.
