Hide AdAndrew, a pupil at the High School of Glasgow, was praised by the school’s rector, Colin Mair, who said: “It is very unusual for a schoolboy to represent Scotland at senior level in any sport.
“We are delighted Andrew’s talent was recognised with his selection for Scotland XI and we look forward to following his cricket career with great interest.”
And more success seems on the way for the sixth-year pupil.
