Men’s international friendly: South Africa v Wales

Venue: Twickenham Date: Saturday, 22 June Kick off: 14:00 BST

Coverage: Live on S4C, BBC iPlayer, BBC Radio Wales, Radio Cymru the BBC Sport website and app, plus live text commentary and followed by match report on the BBC Sport website and app.

Wales head coach Warren Gatland says his side can develop mental toughness by continuing to play top sides such as world champions South Africa.

Gatland has named an experimental side to play the Springboks at Twickenham on Saturday before a two-Test tour of Australia next month.

Wales go into the game following six successive Test defeats, five of which resulted in a first Six Nations wooden spoon in 20 years.

Gatland insisted Wales need to keep playing the best.

“We have our backs to the wall a little bit this week,” said Gatland.

"I don't see it any different to when I arrived in 2008 and was asked by Roger Lewis (Welsh Rugby Union chief executive) who do you want to play">
