Scotland means business

Scotland may be the minnows of the upcoming World Cup, but that doesn't mean they aren't taking things seriously.

Thus, the Scottish board has appointed former England pace spearhead Graham Dilley as bowling coach for its World Cup squad.

The 39-year-old former Test star will join Jim Love, a one-time batting star for Yorkshire, in tuning up the Scotland team for its Cup campaign, which begins on May 16 with a match against Australia at Worcester.

Scotland's group also includes fellow ICC qualifier Bangladesh, besides New Zealand, two time champions the West Indies, and 1992 champion Pakistan. Only the top three teams in the group will go on to the Super Six stage.
