The New Zealand born rugby player Blair Cowan is one of five uncapped players named in the Scotland squad for next month's internationals.

Cowan was born in Upper Hutt but is eligible through his Scotland born mother.

Flanker Cowan says Scotland's always been the country, in his mind, that he wanted to represent.

Scotland play Japan, South Africa and Australia.
