Wales name two debutants for World Cup warm up match against Ireland

Wales hand debuts to Owen Lane and Rhys Carre for Saturday's Rugby World Cup warm-up against Ireland in Cardiff.

Head coach Warren Gatland has made 14 changes from the starting line-up against England 12 days ago, with Blues back-row forward Josh Navidi captaining Wales for the first time.

There are also opportunities for the likes of full-back Hallam Amos, centre Scott Williams, fly-half Jarrod Evans and hooker Ryan Elias prior to Gatland announcing his 31-man World Cup squad on Sunday.

Saturday's Principality Stadium encounter will be Gatland's final Test as Wales boss in Cardiff before he steps down after the World Cup.

Victory over Ireland would give Wales a 12th-successive home win. They have not lost in Cardiff since November 2017
