The 2023 World Cup winners, the Springboks, will host the Six Nations champions of 2024, Ireland, in two thrilling Tests in July.
The world's two top-ranked teams will meet in a highly-anticipated two-Test series in South Africa in July.
Loftus Versfeld and Kings Park sold out within hours of tickets going on sale. And for those lucky enough to have got their hands on said tickets some exciting Test match rugby awaits in July. There was a time — and maybe it is still the case — when only the Springboks versus the All Blacks brought about real excitement and a thrill factor, but in the last while the Boks against Ireland has managed to bring about the same sort of anticipation.
What another thrilling Six Nations it was, with many close games decided late on, and while Ireland are deserved champions, my team of the tournament are Italy.
