Scott was born at Belfast and educated in the city at Belfast Technical High School.[1] Playing club cricket for Cliftonville in Belfast,[1] Scott made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Ireland against Scotland in 1958 at Alloway.[2] Wilson wasn't required to bat in the match and bowled five wicket-less overs of medium pace.[3] He also played three minor matches for Ireland in 1958; playing once against Worcestershire and twice against the touring New Zealanders.[4] Following Cliftonville's league relegation at the end of the 1950s, Scott joined Woodvale.[1] Outside of cricket he worked as an accounts manager.[1] He died at Belfast in April 2018.
