Dan Biggar has exposed how he found out he would be the captain of the Guinness Six Nations of Wales in 2022 and a condition he had before accepting the honour.

Dan Biggar has one condition ahead of accepting Wales captain

Ellis Jenkins and Jonathan Davies both received armbands during the Autumn Nations Series, but the 95-cap Biggar was ultimately singled out by Pivac for the upcoming tournament.

Then why is captain wales man

After getting a call from Pivac Sunday night asking if he could handle the job, Biggar admitted he wanted to guarantee one thing before taking it.

"Visibly it gave people an opportunity to take it over because of the thoughtful injury and the great Alun Wyn Jones misplaced the injury. I'm really eager Wayne called me on Sunday night, I'm much honoured and in that intellect, and existing it to me, I try not to think too much about it."

"They charge Mick and fairly a bit of persistence and I had some communications from the players yesterday, but I'm sure we'll get that out of the way in the coming days."

Wales meet on Monday (24 January) at Hensol's national training ground, ahead of their first match against Ireland in Dublin on 5 February (2.15 pm).

Biggar missed 680 games due to injury and stressed the importance of getting the most out of training camp for tournament success.

"I think it's maybe even more true for us as a team, because we've had a lot of players Covid problems, injuries and so on, who didn't play, new faces on the team, and most importantly we get up attractive quickly."

"Usually a difficult second game against a refining Scotland, we have been quite slow starters in the tournament so there is no room for an away game."

The line-up consists of three uncapped players, with Osprey duo Dewi Lake and Jac Morgan along with Cardiff Rugby's James Ratti.

Five other players are also likely to face the Guinness Six Nations for the first time, and Biggar is urging them to make the most of their title opportunities.

"Obviously we've missed the limit on experience and a lot of absent guys, mid-range guys to really come forward and show management skills, but it's an occasion for young guys and desire and really come out as a team," he said.

"I think it's the first time some guys have tasted it, it’s really thrilling, and I think this game is special anyway. It's really exciting for us to be a member of it."
