Wales wing Josh Adams says he would love to play in a third World Cup as he targets a first trip to Australia next year. It is exactly a year until Wales play their opening game against Zimbabwe in Adelaide on 2 October, before further pool games against Tonga and England. "I'm desperate to go, but there is loads of rugby to be played and months ahead of us," said Adams, looking ahead to the tournament. "It is important that you navigate your way through correctly and get to that start line in a good spot to be selected." Adams, 31, was the World Cup's top try scorer in the 2019 tournament in Japan with seven as Wales reached the semi-finals. The Cardiff back, who was also part of the squad that lost a quarter-final to Argentina four years later, insists he is just as excited for a hat-trick of global tournaments. "I've never been to Australia, so that, as well as playing in a World Cup, is something I'm determined to do," said Adams.
