Wales legend Alun Wyn Jones will earn a record-extending 150th cap for his country when he returns from a four-month injury absence against Italy in their last game of the Six Nations on Saturday.
Fly-half Dan Biggar will retain the captaincy ahead of the returning talisman at the Principality Stadium, however, as he brings up a century of caps for Wales. Head coach Wayne Pivac has named his team two days earlier than usual and made seven changes to the XV that lost 13-9 to France on Friday.
Jones, 36, hasn't played a minute for club nor country since injuring his shoulder against New Zealand on October 30. The veteran lock dislocated the same shoulder on the eve of last year's British and Irish Lions tour but completed a miraculous comeback to captain the team in all three Tests against South Africa.
