Scotland rugby coach Andy Robinson named six uncapped players in a 36-man squad on Thursday for the opening rounds of the Six Nations Championship.
Among the newcomers are Wales-born London Irish centre Steven Shingler, qualified for Scotland through his mother, Edinburgh wing Lee Jones and 19-year-old Glasgow full-back Stuart Hogg.
Glasgow back-row Robert Harley and fly-half Duncan Weir have yet to play Test rugby too, with Sale flanker/lock Fraser McKenzie also waiting for his first taste of full international action.
Scotland will be looking to bounce back from a World Cup in New Zealand where they were eliminated at the group stage for the first time after defeats by both Argentina and England.
They face arch-rivals England in the latest edition of rugby union's oldest Test fixture when they open their Six Nations campaign with a Calcutta Cup clash at Murrayfield on February 4 before travelling to Cardiff to play Wales the following weekend.
Former England flanker and coach Robinson has selected all 28 available players from the 30-man World Cup squad - record cap holder and points scorer Chris Paterson and forward Nathan Hines have both retired from international rugby since the tournament.
