Scotland Twenty20 tournament set to begin

Scotland are set to begin their first national Twenty20 tournament later this month after the first game was washed out on Thursday.

The Murgitroyd Cup will be played in four regional divisions culminating in a finals day in Glasgow in August.

The winners of the existing Mastertion Trophy in the east and Rowan Cup in the west will proceed to a semi-final stage, along with teams from new competitions in the Caledonia and Borders regions.

The finals will be held at the Poloc club's Shawholm ground. Each semi-finalist will receive £500 in prize money with the overall winner collecting £1000.
