Six Nations 2012: Gethin Jenkins and Dan Lydiate back for Wales
The Wales coach, Warren Gatland, has made two changes to his side to face Scotland at Millennium Stadium on Sunday, with the Lions prop Gethin Jenkins returning from injury and Dan Lydiate replacing Bradley Davies, who is suspended. Jenkins starts at loosehead prop, with Rhys Gill losing his place in the squad after starting in the narrow win over Ireland last weekend. Davies's absence opens up a place for Lydiate, who will start at blindside flanker with Ryan Jones moving into the second row. On the bench Lou Reed replaces Justin Tipuric for a Wales side who have not lost at home to Scotland since 2002. Wales team to play Scotland at the Millennium Stadium on Sunday (kick-off 3pm): L Halfpenny; A Cuthbert (both Cardiff Blues), J Davies (Scarlets), J Roberts (Cardiff Blues), G North (Scarlets); R Priestland (Scarlets), M Phillips (Bayonne); G Jenkins (Cardiff Blues), H Bennett, A Jones, R Jones, I Evans (all Ospreys), D Lydiate (Newport Gwent Dragons), S Warburton (Cardiff Blues, capt), T Faletau (Newport Gwent Dragons). Replacements: K Owens (Scarlets), P James (Ospreys), L Reed (Scarlets), A Powell (Sale Sharks), L Williams (Cardiff Blues), J Hook (Perpignan), S Williams (Scarlets).
