Scarlets hooker Ken Owens makes his first start for his country in place of injured Osprey Huw Bennett (calf) when Wales take on England in the RBS 6 Nations at Twickenham on Saturday.
Apart from Owens, the Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-finalists who travel to Brive on Sunday, 8 April, also have Jonathan Davies, George North and Rhys Priestland in a hugely talented Welsh backline.
Sam Warburton returns to captain the side in one of three changes made to the side which triumphed over Scotland last time out. Ospreys second row Alun Wyn Jones comes straight into the starting line-up after completing his return from a toe injury and will win his 60th cap.
That means last week's captain, Ryan Jones, moves to the bench, with Sale Sharks back row Andy Powell missing out.
