Five Cardiff Rugby stars have been named in the Wales team to face Argentina on Sunday, November 9, in their first Quilter Nations Series fixture at Principality Stadium (KO 3.10pm GMT. Live on TNT Sports, discovery+ and S4C).
Keiron Assiratti and Alex Mann start in the pack, while Ben Thomas and Josh Adams are included in the back-line. Liam Belcher continues on the bench after making his international debut against Japan in the summer.

Tandy said: “It’s a real privilege to announce my first match day 23 for Wales. I just want to see that 23 really go out there and express themselves on Sunday and enjoy every moment of representing the country in such a unique and special jersey.”
