Wales have made five changes from the side that lost to England last week for Saturday's first Test against the All Blacks at Eden Park.

Captain Sam Warburton returns from injury to the starting fifteen alongside Gethin Jenkins, Ken Owens, Bradley Davies and Jonathan Davies.

Uncapped flanker Ellis Jenkins is named on the replacements bench.

Warburton is part of a new look back‑row alongside fellow British and Irish Lion Taulupe Faletau.

Rhys Webb and Dan Biggar continue at nine and ten respectively.

Jamie Roberts will line up alongside Jonathan Davies at midfield.

The All Blacks clash with Wales at 7.35pm Saturday while the Wallabies face England at 10pm Saturday and South Africa meet Ireland at 3am Sunday.
