Wales head coach Warren Gatland has named a 35-player squad for the upcoming Autumn Nations Series and it sees Gareth Anscombe recalled to the team.

Anscombe has not played for Wales since the 2023 Rugby World Cup because of injury. The fly-half signed for Premiership side Gloucester at the beginning of the season.

There are also returns for players like Max Llewellyn, Tom Rogers, Nicky Smith and Rhodri Williams.

Hooker Dewi Lake will once again captain the side and there are call ups for two uncapped players, Freddie Thomas and Blair Murray.

Gatland said: “We feel this is an exciting squad with some experience coming back to join the younger players. We know they are going to work incredibly hard as a group this November.

“We have three very different opposition in Fiji, Australia and South Africa, but are looking forward to the challenges that each will pose.

“The autumn campaign is always special because we have back-to-back matches at home each weekend and there is no better place to go and play than Principality Stadium with all the passion and energy of our incredible fans.”
