Gregor Townsend has recalled Finn Russell to his squad for Scotland's showdown with New Zealand following their 28-12 win over Fiji last weekend.

With Adam Hastings injured, the experienced fly-half who plays his club rugby in France will offer his services for Scotland in a showpiece clash against the All Blacks.

It has been a mixed time for Scotland, who lost to Australia in their opening game of the Autumn Internationals and won on Saturday. They recovered from a strong challenge by Fiji in the opening 40 minutes of that game, and playing the All Blacks this weekend will prove to be a major step up for the Scots.

Ian Foster’s team beat Wales 55-23 in Cardiff in a year where the All Blacks have been described as one of the worst New Zealand teams in recent memory. His side will hope to put an end to that narrative when they face Scotland this Sunday.

Such is the strength of the players available to Foster, senior internationals Leicester Fainga’anuku and Brad Weber have joined the All Blacks XV squad that will take on the Barbarians, while TJ Perenara has linked up with the squad in Edinburgh.
