Sean Lynn has named his highly anticipated first Test side since taking over as Wales head coach.

Hannah Jones will lead the team out against Scotland in their Women's Six Nations opener in Edinburgh on Saturday.

She will be joined in the centre by GB Sevens Olympian Kayleigh Powell who usually plays fly-half or full-back.

Fellow Olympian Jasmine Joyce-Butchers starts at 15 with Lisa Neumann and Carys Cox named on the wings.

Lleucu George and Keira Bevan resume their half-back partnership, while the pack has a new look with Lynn showing confidence in the young forwards who shone in the Celtic Challenge.

Maisie Davies and Jenni Scoble join Carys Phillips in the front-row, with Abbie Fleming and Alaw Pyrs packing in behind.

Kate Williams, Bethan Lewis and Georgia Evans make up the back row.

Wales have plenty of experience to call on from the bench which has a five forward and three backs split.

Gwenllian Pyrs has recovered from shoulder surgery and will be looking to join younger sister Alaw on the pitch, while Kelsey Jones has returned from a serious knee injury.

Gwen Crabb has also got some game time under her belt in the Celtic Challenge after overcoming her latest injury, while Donna Rose provides front row cover.

Meg Davies is the replacement scrum-half, with Courtney Keight and Nel Metcalfe the backs.
