Fiji v Scotland (Rugby Union - Scotland International)

18 Jul 14:10
Coverage of all the action from the round-robin match at Scottish Gas Murrayfield. While Fiji are the designated hosts, the fixture is being played here because their main stadium does not meet the competition requirements, and the Scots will be looking to avenge a 29-14 defeat in Suva last November.

South Africa v Wales (Rugby Union - Wales International)

18 Jul 16:40
Coverage of the round-robin match at Hollywoodbets Kings Park in Durban. Wales have enjoyed something of an upturn in fortunes in recent matches after a difficult few years, but face a daunting task against the reigning world champions, who thrashed them 73-0 when the teams met in Cardiff last November.

France vs England (World Cup)

18 Jul 22:00
Coverage of the third-place play-off, which takes place at Miami Stadium in the USA. This is a match likely to feature several squad players, as the managers give those who have patiently waited their turn the chance to end the tournament on a high. France were expected to reach the final, but were soundly beaten by Spain in the semi-finals, and this represents Didier Deschamps' final match in charge of Les Bleus. England blew a glorious chance to reach a second World Cup final, but let slip a 1-0 lead against Argentina, after Anthony Gordon's opener had put them on their way against the defending champions

England v India (Cricket England ODI)

19 Jul 11:00
Coverage of the third and final ODI of the series from Lord's Cricket Ground in London. The hosts are looking for their first series victory in this format since a 2-1 win at home in 2018. That success was only England's second ODI series win in their last nine attempts against their visitors. Since then India have won three series on the trot, as well as coming out on top in seven of the last nine meetings between the two sides.

Spain vs Argentina (World Cup)

19 Jul 20:00
Coverage of the final, which takes place at New York/New Jersey Stadium in the USA. Spain reached only their second World Cup final by defeating tournament favourites France with a masterclass in their semi-final, winning 2-0 and completely nullifying a disjointed French outfit with ease. They won on their only other appearance in the final, against the Netherlands in 2010, and start as favourites against the defending champions. Argentina are aiming to become only the third nation in history to win back-to-back world crowns, following on from Italy in the 1930s, and Brazil in 1958 and 1962, but will need to be at their very best against the Spaniards. The South Americans came from behind in the last 16 against Egypt and again against England in the semi-finals, with their fight and team spirit making up for weaknesses elsewhere
