The Springboks will play England and Wales on their end-of-year tour in 2016.

Two of the Boks' fixtures for next year's tour to the UK were confirmed on Wednesday, with the national side set to face England at Twickenham, where they played their World Cup quarter- and semi-finals on 12 November. The Boks will be aiming for their sixth successive victory over England at Twickenham, dating back to 25 November 2006.

Wales, beaten by the Boks in a hard-fought World Cup quarter-final recently, will host South Africa at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff two weeks later, on 26 November.

Details of the rest of the Boks’ tour to the northern hemisphere in 2016 will be announced in due course.
