Wales name team to tackle Ireland

Wales boss Wayne Pivac has named his side, to face Ireland in Dublin on Saturday.

After much speculation, Josh Adams has indeed been named at outside centre, partnering Nick Tompkins.

Ellis Jenkins gets the nod at flank ahead of Ross Moriarty who, returning from injury, takes a spot on the bench.

Uncapped hooker Dewi Lake has a chance to make his Test debut as a replacement.

Ireland are set to name their team later this afternoon as Andy Farrell enjoys the luxury of picking  from a fully fit squad.
