(Reuters) - Wales coach Warren Gatland has kept faith with the majority of his team that lost the second test against the All Blacks with props Rob Evans and Tomas Francis coming into the starting side.

Evans, who had been on the bench for the first two tests, replaces the injured Gethin Jenkins, who has already returned to Britain after he sustained a calf injury in the 36-22 second test loss in Wellington.
