Ulster and Ireland out-half David Humphreys has been named in a World XV squad to take on South Africa on Saturday week (Ellis Park, Johannesburg, kick-off 2.00pm Irish time).

The World XV, coached by Bob Dwyer, are scheduled to play both the Springboks (June 3) and a Corne Krige XV (Newlands, June 9) – in a game to honour the former Stormers and South Africa captain.

As well as that, the star-studded tourists will be involved in a number of training clinics for local schools and coaches alike.

The South Africa v World XV fixture will be broadcast live on Sky Sports 3 at 2.00pm on Saturday week. Tullamore man Peter Bracken was originally named in the squad but his call-up to the Ireland summer tour squad means he will miss out.
