In May 2009 Borthwick took two catches while fielding as substitute for England in the second Test against the West Indies at the Riverside Ground.
Borthwick became the youngest player to be hit for 5 consecutive sixes in an over against Essex. The final ball was slightly better – a wide – giving Essex an unlikely victory.
Borthwicks uncle, David, played one List-A match for Northumberland in 1994.
International Career
Borthwick was announced as a member of the England ODI squad for their match against Ireland in August 2011. In the one-off match he scored 15 runs off 9 balls late in Englands innings, and bowled just 1 over, conceding 13 runs. He made his Twenty20 International début on 25 September 2011 in the match against the West Indies. Borthwick was touted in December 2013 as a future Test Cricket bowler by retiring England bowler Graeme Swann, who said:
"Personally, I hope little Scotty Borthwick gets the chance before long. Hes a leg-spinner, hes got a bit of X-factor and he can bat as well."
He was subsequently called up to the England test squad (alongside James Tredwell) in time for the 4th Ashes test as a replacement for Swann.
