South Africa v Wales: Tommy Reffell receives his first Wales cap.

Uncapped Leicester Tigers flanker Tommy Reffell receives his first Wales cap before the opening Test vs South Africa in Pretoria.

Current world champions South Africa are dreadful opposition for Wales and the toughest of opponents for Tommy Reffell to face when he makes the step-up to the highest level.

Reffell, 23, will begin in the back row alongside Dan Lydiate and Taulupe Faletau.

The Pretoria game will begin the three-Test series and be followed by internationals in Bloemfontein and Cape Town.
