Kiwi winger to make Scotland debut at Twickenham

New Zealand-born Sean Maitland will make his Scotland debut against England in Saturday's RBS 6 Nations Championship opener against England, the Scottish Rugby Union has confirmed.

The 24-year-old wing qualifies for Scotland through his grandparents and he will be joined in the starting line-up at Twickenham by his Glasgow Warriors team-mate and hooker Dougie Hall.

Interim head coach Scott Johnson has made six personnel changes to the side that ended the EMC Tests with a 21-15 defeat to Tonga in November - a result that prompted Andy Robinson's resignation - also making one positional change.
