Australia v England

England were left licking their wounds in the first Test as they crumbled to a 30-28 defeat in Perth despite the Wallabies having had a man sent off. However, they bounced back last weekend with a assured 25-17 victory in Brisbane.

Heading to the Sydney Cricket Ground, Eddie Jones will be looking to seal a second series victory in Australia - having secured a 3-0 whitewash in 2016.

Wayne Pivac's side bounced back from late heartbreak in the first Test to win in Bloemfontein last Saturday, with Josh Adams' late try and Gareth Anscombe's conversion making history in sealing Wales' first win over the Springboks in South Africa.

Now, tied at 1-1, they travel to Cape Town with the prospect of a first ever summer tour series victory over one of the southern hemisphere's big three

Gregor Townsend’s side went down to a 26-18 defeat in San Salvador de Jujuy in the first Test but bounced back with 29-6 win in Salta to keep their hopes of an series win.
