Volkswacht Bodensee - White returns for Scotland's final Rugby World Cup warm-up with Georgia

First-choice number nine White suffered an ankle injury in the first of two warm-up games against World Cup hosts France earlier this month but was included in coach Gregor Townsend's 33-man squad for the tournament.

White did not feature in August 12's narrow 30-27 loss to Les Bleus in Saint-Etienne but will now be involved from the kick-off in Scotland's final warm-up game before heading back to France.

Dynamic winger Duhan van der Merwe, who suffered a minor ankle injury in Saint-Etienne, is also in the starting lineup and will feature alongside five-cap Ollie Smith, the least experienced player in Saturday's run on side, who is in for Blair Kinghorn at full-back.

Scotland, in a tough World Cup group also featuring top-ranked Ireland, begin their Pool B campaign against champions South Africa in Marseille on September 10.
