Warren Gatland has named ten Scarlets in the Wales team to face Scotland in the first game of the Six Nations on Saturday.

There is also a debut for Josh Adams, the Worcester Warriors wing who has lit up the English Premiership this season with his try-scoring exploits.

Gatland has had his hand forced somewhat with the debilitating injury list.

As with the autumn internationals, injured back-row stalwart Sam Warburton is replaced by Josh Navidi, with Justin Tipuric on the bench. Ross Moriarty replaces the crocked Taulupe Faletau at No.8, and they are joined by Aaron Shingler who also excelled at the back end of the year.

Hadleigh Parkes bagged two tries against South Africa on his debut in November and takes his place at 12 alongside Scarlets centre partner Scott Williams.

Having suffered late injuries to halfbacks Rhys Webb and Dan Bigger, Gatland has opted for another Scarlets pairing with Gareth Davies and Rhys Patchell occupying the nine and ten spots.

The side in full:

Wales: Leigh Halfpenny; Josh Adams, Scott Williams, Hadleigh Parkes, Steff Evans; Rhys Patchell, Gareth Davies; Rob Evans, Ken Owens, Samson Lee; Cory Hill, Alun Wyn Jones; Aaron Shingler, Josh Navidi, Ross Moriarty.

Reps: Elliot Dee, Wyn Jones, Tomas Francis, Bradley Davies, Justin Tipuric, Aled Davies, Gareth Anscombe, Owen Watkin.
