Murray said it was"surreal" when coach Warren Gatland asked him to captain the side. The 32-year-old added that he would work with the likes of England skipper Owen Farrell and Ireland's Robbie Henshaw to ease himself into his new role.

"What puts me at ease is that we have such a good leadership group that it means I can continue being myself. There will be a bit more responsibility, but I don't think it should change anything around the camp."That's one of the most important things - that I remain myself and I assume that's why Warren asked me to do it."
