Scotland have included four players into their Six Nations squad but flanker Hamish Wilson has withdrawn due to a hand injury.

Head coach Gregor Townsend has added uncapped forwards Luke Crosbie and Matt Smith alongside Glasgow Warriors duo Alex Dunbar and Rob Harley, due to injuries to several squad players.

Glasgow trio Jonny Gray, Sam Johnson and Ryan Wilson will continue rehabilitation on their injuries in the camp.
