A last-gasp defeat to hosts South Africa Schools on Friday was nonetheless a thrilling way to start their campaign in the Western Cape, with Wales scoring six tries in the process.
 
Remaining in the forward pack tomorrow are hooker Cameron Lewis, second row partners Teddy Williams and Jac Price, and openside Jac Morgan – the latter a try-scorer in the last game, who captains the team this time out.
 
Fullback Ioan Lloyd, wing Louis Rees-Zammit and inside centre Aneurin Owen continue in the backs.
 
England suffered a defeat of their own in their opening game, losing 41-21 to France. The French may prove to be the team to beat in this year’s series, having raced into a 31-0 half-time lead against England on Friday.

*UPDATE: Sam Costelow will now start at fly-half, with Evan Lloyd on the bench.  
 
Wales play their final game of the series against Les Bleus this Saturday in Newlands at 11:15 BST.
