The Barbarians face South Africa in Cape Town in a game set to feature some of the world's most renowned players.
Lining up for the Baa-Baas are the likes of former All Blacks captain Sam Cane, Ireland legend Peter O'Mahony and superstar New Zealand wing Mark Telea.
O'Mahony is going to captain the side in what will be a farewell match for the iconic flanker. Fellow Irish stalwart Cian Healy has also been named in the team for the clash, getting his farewell too.
The Barbarians are being coached by New Zealander and former Australia boss Robbie Deans, who is currently the director of rugby at Japanese outfit Saitama Wild Knights.
For the Springboks, following this game against the Baa-Baas, they will go on to face Italy in a double header in July. The first match is on July 5, with the second Test on July 12.
Rassie Erasmus' side will close out the northern hemisphere portion of their summer internationals with a game against Georgia on July 19, which is the same day the British & Irish Lions play Australia in the first Test.

South Africa will then take part in The Rugby Championship against New Zealand, Argentina and Australia from July onwards.
Springbok assistant coach Tony Brown assured fans they will be treating this game like a Test match.
'It's definitely a different challenge to that which we've faced in the past because they have toppled some top teams, so it will be an ideal test for us at the start of the season,' said Brown.
'For us, this is like a Test match, and this means we need to perform to the best of our ability, and our coaching structures have to be right, so that we can live up to the standards we would like to see from our team.'

Mack Hansen urges caution when the Lions take on Western Force
Hansen starts on the right wing against Western Force at Optus Stadium where he will face some of his old Brumbies team-mates, including a former housemate in Bayley Kuenzle. The 27-year-old was born and raised in Canberra and began his career playing for the most successful of Australia's Super Rugby franchises before joining Connacht in 2021. Selection for Ireland the following year was made possible through his Irish mother and 28 caps later he is on tour with the elite of British and Irish rugby, recalling a cautionary tale from 2013. 'I was at that Brumbies game with my dad and brother and the Brumbies beat the Lions, so these things do happen,' he said. 'We were sitting behind the goalposts watching it. It was mad. You don't expect anyone to actually do it, but I talked to guys after that and they'd been pumped up for the game for weeks, working towards it. 'They saw it as the be-all and end-all. Also, guys are playing to try to get into the Wallabies as well, so there's still a lot on the line for a lot of these teams. 'None of the games are going to be easy. Everyone wants to win – it's not just us that want to win. Sea of Blue vs Sea of Red 🦢🦁#StrongerTogether #Lions2025 @lionsofficial @OptusStadium — Western Force (@westernforce) June 26, 2025 'We want to win every game but the Force aren't saying 'all right boys, let's go out and lose by 40'. They'll be coming out thinking 'we can cause an upset'. They've only got one game, then they're on holiday. 'There will be this, then they'll have 10 toes up for the next five weeks, so I'm sure they're going to give it their all. 'When you get that time after time after time after time for however long we're here, it will take its toll on us, but that's a good thing. It makes us better and it makes the game more exciting.' Any doubt the Lions have a target on their backs was immediately dispelled by the 28-24 defeat by Argentina in Dublin that the heavy underdogs from South America celebrated as if they had won the World Cup. Hansen knows that any more setbacks will be poorly received by the Lions' coaching team. Our team for Saturday night's Tour opener in Perth! 🦁#Lions2025 — British & Irish Lions (@lionsofficial) June 26, 2025 'We are four of the best teams and have some of the best players in the world. You should be winning every time, so every time it's a loss that just isn't good enough,' he said. 'That's the best thing that this group has on its shoulders at the moment because we know that and as disappointed as we were, we don't want to feel that again. 'If anything, it's good to feel it early and then we know that we'll get our heads absolutely chewed off if it happens again, so the plan is to win from here on out. 'A lot of the chat has been about us and what we need to improve. The only thing that can beat us is us really.'

The Ryder Cup legend appeared to be disgruntled with the former PGA star for not helping him search for it. A video caught the heated moment in which Harrington hit out at Maltbie's course etiquette. He said: "Never on a golf course stand and look at somebody looking for a golf ball."

One posted: "Just when you thought golf couldn't get any less interesting." A second wrote: "If the player can see him, he's in the wrong place." A third commented: "That is a weird flex for Maltbie." A fourth said: "The relationship between golf and old media is dying in front of our eyes." 3 Harrington still finished the day tied for the lead Credit: Getty A fifth joked: "Seeing mom and dad fight like this is insanely depressing." Another added: "What is going on?" Harrington's round was not affected by the rogue moment as he still managed to finish his round with an impressive 67. He reached six under par and was tied for the lead alongside Stewart Cink. Maltbie switched from pro golf to broadcasting back in 1991, having spent 20 years on the course. He won five tournaments during his time on the PGA Tour.
