Forward Steven Naismith hopes to end a year-long wait for his landmark 50th Scotland cap - which will vindicate his decision to sign for Hearts. The 33-year-old chose a return to the Scottish Premiership this summer ahead of options to play outside of the UK. A hamstring injury has restricted his club games, but he is in contention to feature for Scotland against Cyprus. "The biggest thing playing in Scotland does is put you in the limelight with the coverage," Naismith said. "I am looking forward to it, but I've got to go and train well first and hopefully get the nod from the manager," he told BBC Scotland.
