Record try scorer Darcy Graham and Blair Kinghorn return to the Scotland XV for Sunday's Nations Championship fixture with Australia at Murrayfield (15:10 GMT).

Kinghorn takes over from Kyle Rowe at full-back, with Rowe not in the squad, while Jamie Dobie drops to the bench to accommodate Graham on the wing.

Graham, 29, was expected to miss the autumn Tests but has made a quicker-than-expected recovery from a bicep tear and returned to Edinburgh duty last month. He has 38 tries in 57 international appearances, while Toulouse's Kinghorn has 16 in 69 caps.

There are no changes to the starting pack while back-row Ollie Leatherbarrow could debut off the bench.

The Scots were beaten by New Zealand in Edinburgh last weekend, with the Wallabies losing to England at Twickenham.

Scotland: Blair Kinghorn, Kyle Steyn, Sione Tuipulotu (capt), Darcy Graham, Finn Russell, Ben White; Rory Sutherland, Ewan Ashman, Zander Fagerson, Gregor Brown, Scott Cummings, Matt Fagerson, Rory Darge, Jack Dempsey.
