The 2024 Scotland Tri-Nation Series was the third round of the 2024–2026 ICC Cricket World Cup League 2 cricket tournament, which was held in Scotland in July 2024. The tri-nation series was contested by the men's national teams of Scotland, Namibia and Oman. The matches were played as One Day International (ODI) fixtures.
Originally scheduled for May 2024, the series was rescheduled to July due to "unprecedented poor weather" resulting in a delay in the preparation of the playing pitches. A one-off Twenty20 International (T20I) match between Scotland and Oman was scheduled to be held following the League 2 series in May. The T20I match was confirmed to be cancelled in Cricket Scotland's announcement of the series postponement in April 2024.
Squads
Charlie Cassell was added to the Scotland squad on 15 July 2024 in place of Chris Sole, who was unavailable for personal reasons.
