Wales autumn squad Q&A: Has Pivac got selection right and what does best XV look like?

Wales named their squad for the autumn on Tuesday, with Wayne Pivac opting for five uncapped players in his 35-man cohort.

Captain Dan Biggar was one of the notable absentees through injury, while the likes of Rhys Carre and Ross Moriarty can consider themselves unlucky not to be involved. As always, selection is a matter of opinion and the question of whether this is the right one will have been posed among fans.

There are a few fair other questions to ask, too. Who will be named captain? What does Pivac's best XV look like? Will any of the uncapped players get game-time? Who starts in that back-row?
