Wales have recalled hooker Dewi Lake to their squad for their final two Six Nations fixtures against Scotland and England, officials confirmed on Tuesday.

Former captain Lake has not played in the championship since 2022, having been overlooked for the first three games of this yearโ€™s campaign due to a bicep injury.

He is likely to come straight back into contention for a place in the match-day 23 when Wales, who are on a team record 15-game losing streak, go to Murrayfield to play Scotland on 8 March.

Wales have slipped to 12th in the world rankings, also an unwanted team record, but looked vastly improved in the first game in charge for interim coach Matt Sherratt on Saturday, a 27-18 home defeat to defending champions Ireland.
