BREAKING: Sharks v B&I Lions going ahead

NEWS: The tour match between the Sharks and the British and Irish Lions will go ahead on Wednesday.

Confirmation of the match follows the news early in the day that a member of its management team has tested positive for COVID-19, following a lateral flow test as part of the Tour screening programme which took place on Wednesday 7 July.

The individual and four close contacts - including two players and two members of staff - are being isolated and assessed at the team hotel.

All members of the touring party have since been PCR tested.
