When it comes to facing his native New Zealand as Wales coach, Wayne Pivac hasn't had too much luck.
The proposed first meeting, a summer tour in 2020, was called off due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Last year's autumn opener was played outside of the Test window, leaving Pivac without his English-based stars.
This year's clash against the All Blacks is inside the window, but unfortunately for Pivac, he's got more than a few injury headaches on the go right now.
