Wales’s Six Nations clash against Scotland may be a dead rubber where the title is concerned, but it will be a moment of rugby history as Alun Wyn Jones becomes the most-capped player of all time.

The Wales captain will make his 149th international appearance, combining what will be his 140th cap for his country with his nine British and Irish Lions Tests, to see him surpass the previous record held by Richie McCaw.

Never one to want to hog the limelight though, Jones will be determined to see his side return to winning ways after a rare four-game losing streak, having suffered Six Nations losses against Ireland, France and England before defeat last weekend in a warm-up game with the French.

Scotland sit above Wales in the table and know a victory will not only hold off Wayne Pivac’s side in terms of finishing position, but could see them secure a top three finish.

With the Principality Stadium out of action due to the Welsh Rugby Union making the national ground available for the NHS to fight the coronavirus pandemic, the game will take place behind closed doors at Parc Y Scarlets in Llanelli.
