Wales are about to embark on their toughest task of Wayne Pivac's coaching reign with a three-Test series against world champions South Africa, with two of those at altitude.
It is the first time Pivac's men are in action since their disastrous Six Nations final-day 22-21 defeat to Italy, while they have never won on South African soil in 10 previous encounters.
Wales' summer series begins on Saturday at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria in the 38th Test between the two countries (Wales have won six and drawn one of those encounters), where they will be greeted by a sell-out 50,000-capacity crowd: the first time the Springboks will have played in front of a home crowd since they won the Rugby World Cup in 2019.
