Josh Navidi insists the Welsh camp is staying cool, calm and collected ahead of Saturday’s crunch NatWest Six Nations clash with England at Twickenham.

Warren Gatland’s side started their campaign with a bang, inflicting a convincing 34-7 defeat on Scotland in their opening encounter at Principality Stadium.

Next up is a trip to Eddie Jones’ double defending champions.

“With a performance like the one against Scotland we’ve shown what we can do,” Navidi said.

“It was a big two weeks leading up to the game with Scotland and we’ve shown we can play.

“Coming from this performance we can look at it as a positive, but I think we can build on it this week and get where we need to get to this Saturday.

“We go week by week, but we’ve got our first win now so hopefully we can go down there (Twickenham) and get a second. It’s just about going week by week and getting the wins.”

England have won the last two Six Nations under Jones and haven’t lost at Twickenham under the Australian’s guidance since he took charge of the Red Rose.

“It’s England away and you can’t get any bigger than that so we’ll see what happens in the week,” said Navidi, who continued his fine Wales form from the autumn against Scotland.

“Eddie Jones has been fantastic for them. You can see what he’s done with Japan and now the way he’s building with England. It shows what he’s brought over and it should be a good game.”

Navidi is loving life in the Wales camp.

He was the top tackler for Gatland’s side against Scotland with 17 and also made a number of crucial turnovers.

The Cardiff Blues man said: “This is what you thrive on as a rugby player and you always want to play for your country. I’ve taken my chances and I’m enjoying it, that’s all I can ask for.

“Hopefully I can have that jersey for the next week, but I’ve just got to perform on the pitch and hope for the best.

“I’m just enjoying my rugby at the minute and it’s nice to get out there and play in the Six Nations.”
