ROME (Reuters) - Wales coach Warren Gatland admitted trying to turn around Wales’ dire fortunes was proving challenging and he was questioning his ability to do so as their Six Nations defeat in Italy on Saturday plunged the team into further crisis.

They dropped down to 12th in the world rankings and saw their record run of successive losses extended to 14 as they lost 22-15 in their second game of this year’s tournament after last week’s 43-0 loss to France.
