- First match due to take place in Cape Town on 3 July
- SA Rugby in full support to help implement plan
The British & Irish Lions have reverted to plan A and will play behind closed doors in South Africa this summer after abandoning alternative plans to host the tour in the UK.
After weeks of speculation the Lions board and their SA Rugby counterparts now insist the series will happen in July and August, assuming the necessary Covid-19 safety precautions are in place.
