(Reuters) - New Wales captain Dan Biggar says the upcoming Six Nations campaign feels like his first as he prepares to lead a squad missing 680 caps to injury, including regular skipper Alun Wyn Jones.

Biggar will make his bow as captain in Wales' opener against Ireland in Dublin on Feb. 5 as they seek to retain the title they won last year.
