Hide AdWatt turned 22 last Sunday and has been playing with Tynemouth in the north east of England this term.
However, he is best known for his Scotland performances and he took three wickets back in June when Grant Bradburn’s side famously defeated England in Edinburgh in an ODI.
To date he has played 18 ODIs and 23 T20 internationals for his country and is the latest Scotland star to be offered a chance in the English domestic game.
