Scotland captain Gavin Hamilton is hoping to overcome an ankle injury in time to lead his country at the ICC World Twenty20.
The 34-year-old all-rounder was injured in the Friends Provident Trophy defeat at Kent and faces a race against time for the tournament south of the border.
Hamilton commented: "It is all very frustrating, coming so soon after being given the captaincy.
"I tried to stop the ball with my foot while fielding in the ring and ended up stepping on it and the damage was done.
"I have sustained similar problems in my career and it could take a few weeks to sort. Obviously, I hope it is not that serious."
