Scotland coach Craig Wallace is looking forward to the series and providing his players with the rare opportunity to play 50-over cricket.
“This series is an outstanding opportunity for us to play ODI cricket and host more international matches in Scotland," Wallace said.
"Our players all really enjoy the ODI format, and I’m looking forward to seeing them put in some strong performances in fixtures that I think really suits us.
“It’s great to welcome Ammy, Rebecca, Charlotte and Isabella into the squad and I’m keen to see how they perform. They have all played really well this summer, not just in the pathway setup but also in A team and regional cricket over the last couple of years, and hopefully they can continue that form and put in some excellent performances."
The opening match of the series will be held in Clydesdale, with the final two contests fixtured in Stirling.
