Wales squad revealed for the NatWest 6 Nations

Adams has been in prolific try-scoring form for Aviva Premiership club Worcester this season, while Davies - brother of Wales and British and Lions centre Jonathan Davies - has been a consistent performer for the Scarlets.

The squad, announced by the Welsh Rugby Union, also includes the likes of Northampton wing George North and Bath number eight Taulupe Faletau, who are both currently sidelined through injury.

Wales are the fourth-favourites at 12/1 in Sky Bet's odds to win the NatWest 6 Nations.

Wales head coach Warren Gatland said: "It is an exciting opportunity for the two new caps.

"James' form over the last couple of years has been impressive. He is in a competitive area, but we look forward to seeing what he can do.

"For Josh, it's a great opportunity. He's been on great form, and the back-three is somewhere we are looking to create depth in.

"We have included a couple of players who are carrying injuries.

"With Taulupe (Faletau), we are hoping he will be available towards the end of the campaign, and Rhys (Priestland) picked up a knock at the weekend, so we will see where he is at.

"It's useful to have these experienced guys around camp and to have them included and to work with them."
