England get World Cup rematches

Australia and Wales - England's Pool A opponents at the World Cup - will both visit Twickenham in 2016, Wales doing so twice.

Wales beat England 28-25 in their September 26 encounter at Twickenham, with Australia demolishing the English 33-13 at the same venue a week later - which resulted in England becoming the first host country ever to exit the global showpiece before the knock-out stages.

The Welsh will have the honour of visiting Twickenham for a Six Nations match on March 12, before they return on May 29 - a match that is a 'warm-up' for the Welsh ahead of their three-Test tour to New Zealand.

The Wallabies only arrive at Twickenham, for their rematch, on December 3.

However, that match is subject to a final agreement with Premiership Rugby Limited - the organisation that runs England's Premiership club competition.

England will play four consecutive Tests against Southern Hemisphere opponents at Twickenham at the end of next year.

South Africa, Fiji, Argentina and Australia will all visit the famous venue.

"It's great to be able to take on four such quality teams on back to back weekends," England fullback Mike Brown said.

"It allows us to test ourselves against some high calibre opposition."

England's year-end Tests:

Saturday, November 12: v  South Africa - Kick-off: 14.30

Saturday, November 19: v Fiji,  Kick-off: 14.30

Saturday, November 26: v  Argentina,  Kick-off: 14.30
