Jones said: “These fixtures will be a really important part of our preparation for the 2023 World Cup.

“It's almost a mini World Cup in itself and we're fortunate to have it less than a year before the tournament.

“It will be a good litmus test for the team to see where we are at, culminating in playing first and second in the world.

“We saw how much of a difference having a full Twickenham Stadium was this autumn and we can't wait to play a series of games against such quality opposition in front of our supporters.”
