Wales Announce Autumn Fixtures with Two Sunday Games and No Match Outside Test Window
Wales have released their schedule for this year’s autumn internationals, which will feature two matches on Sundays and none outside of the Test window. This marks a significant departure from previous years, as Wales’ autumn series has traditionally consisted of four matches.
Three Key Southern Hemisphere Opponents
Warren Gatland’s side will face Fiji, Australia, and world champions South Africa this autumn. All matches will be broadcast on TNT Sports and discovery+.
Sunday Clashes and Traditional Saturday
The clashes with Fiji and Australia will both take place on Sundays, leaving just the clash with the Springboks on the traditional Saturday. This is the first time since 2000 that Wales’ autumn series will feature two Sunday matches.
