T20 World Cup: Former England men’s cricketer Chris Read has joined Scotland as their assistant coach for the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, to be held from October 3-20 in the UAE.

The news of his appointment comes on the day a majority of Scotland’s players fly to the UAE for a training camp and a series of warmup matches. Read joined a coaching staff featuring head coach Craig Wallace and his assistant Joe Kinghorn-Gray.

"I’m delighted to be joining the Scotland coaching staff ahead of what is a hugely exciting period for the national team. It’s fantastic to have the opportunity to work with such a talented group of players, and it certainly will help to already know some of them well through our time together in domestic cricket.
