Wales name Liam Williams and Josh Navidi in team to face England with four changes for Six Nations encounter

LIAM WILLIAMS and Josh Navidi have returned to the Wales team for their Twickenham showdown against England.

The pair have been absent from the Six Nations campaign so far, but have returned to the starting line-up.

Having not played since Japan, Williams has been named on the wing after an injury to World Cup-leading try-scorer Josh Adams, while George North returns after a concussion scare against France.

Meanwhile Dan Biggar has won his race to be fit for the crunch encounter against the Red Rose after picking up an injury problem playing for Northampton over the weekend.

Tomos Williams wins back the No9 jersey, while Rhys Webb is on the bench as back-up scrum-half.

Meanwhile Rob Evans comes in for Wyn Jones as loosehead prop and Taulupe Faletau drops to the bench after starting the first three games.

Wales coach Wayne Pivac said: "We’ve had a good two weeks and we are really excited about heading up to Twickenham for what will be a huge Six Nations clash.

"We have had the chance to put the disappointments of the loss to France behind us and we know heading to London we need to be more clinical in attack and convert the opportunities that we are creating.

"Liam’s return to full fitness is a positive after the loss of Josh (Adams), as is the return of Josh Navidi.

"We have been targeting this game for both of their returns and they have trained really well so it’s a great opportunity for them on Saturday."
