Richie Gray has expressed delight at his return to the Scotland squad and stressed there was no fall-out with coach Gregor Townsend.

The 65-times capped lock forward has not played for the national side for over two-and-a-half years and asked not to be considered for the 2019 Rugby World Cup following the birth of his son.

He has been beset by injuries in recent seasons but is now fit and jumped at the chance to be part of Townsend’s squad for the autumn internationals.
