Dragons full back Huw Anderson, Cardiff flyhalf Harri Wilde, Harlequins back-row Seb Driscoll, Ospreys second row Evan Hill and tighthead prop Kian Hire are the new faces in the squad travelling to Cape Town for matches against New Zealand, Japan and France.

Jones, who has taken over from Byron Hayward after the former Wales defence coach resigned following a Six Nations whitewash, is quietly confident Wales can be competitive, even though they face giants New Zealand first up.
