Wales to field stronger team against France

Wales head coach Steve Tandy has made four changes to his team for the match against France on Sunday, including Ollie Cracknell starting at number 8. These changes are in a bid to end Wales' 12-match losing streak in the Six Nations.

Following a 48-7 defeat to England last week, Tandy has strengthened his pack by selecting Ollie Cracknell at 8 for his first Six Nations start, and making two changes in the front row: Rhys Carre and Tomas Francis come in for Nicky Smith and Archie Griffin.
