Wales has added James Botham, a versatile loose-forward, to their squad for the upcoming test against South Africa and the tour of Australia. Botham, the grandson of cricket legend Ian Botham, brings experience with 10 international caps and the ability to play across the back row. The squad currently has 38 players, set to be reduced to 34 for the Australia tour. This addition comes after Botham's absence due to a knee injury following the Six Nations. The match against South Africa will take place at Twickenham before Wales heads to Australia for two Tests and a fixture against the Queensland Reds. England-based club players are not available for the South Africa match due to scheduling conflicts with World Rugby's international window.
