Returning from injury, player will become youngest to reach a century for their country
Wales' George North

GEORGE NORTH will earn his 100th Wales cap in tomorrow’s Six Nations clash against England at the Principality Stadium, it was confirmed today.

At 28 years and 320 days, he will eclipse Australia captain Michael Hooper by four weeks as the youngest player to reach a century of caps for their country.

North and Jonathan Davies will form Wales’ centre pairing, having recovered from foot and ankle injuries respectively, while wing Josh Adams returns after serving a two-match ban for breaching coronavirus protocols.
