Is Wales vs England on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Six Nations clash

Independent15-03-2025

England will look to take the clubhouse lead on Six Nations Super Saturday as they travel to Cardiff to take on Wales.
Ever an eagerly-anticipated fixture, the rivalry takes on extra meaning on the final day of the championship with the visitors looking to put the pressure on France, who play Scotland to conclude the tournament.
A bonus point win for England would take them clear at the top of the table and force Fabien Galthie's side to win to wrap up the title.
But the hosts would love nothing more than ending England's chances as they look to snap their long losing run to finish Matt Sherratt's encouraging interim stint with a flourish.
Here's everything you need to know.
When is Wales vs England?
Wales vs England is due to kick off at 4.45pm GMT on Saturday 15 March at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
How can I watch it?

Wales hand Joe Roberts his first professional start on the wing as the Scarlets centre shifts outwards after injuries to Tom Rogers and Josh Adams. The 24-year-old impressed in the role after Rogers's early departure against Scotland and joins Ellis Mee and Blair Murray in a young, exciting back three. Aaron Wainwright is also recalled to the starting side, with Tommy Reffell dropping to the bench.
England reshuffle more radically after the season-ending injury sustained by Ollie Lawrence. Tommy Freeman relocates to centre with Elliot Daly stationed on the wing and Marcus Smith recalled at full-back. Tom Roebuck completes the back three on his first international start, while Ben Curry joins twin brother Tom in a mobile back row. 20-year-old flanker Henry Pollock is a fourth openside in the matchday 23 as he awaits a debut off a bench which also contains George Ford, sighted for the first time in this tournament.

Royal Ascot Jockey FLOORED by horse moments after winning race as King Charles III watches on in shock

James Doyle was shockingly floored by runner Lazzat as he celebrated their win on the final day of Royal Ascot. Doyle claimed victory with the French four-year-old in the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes to complete a double after Humidity's win in the Chesham Stakes earlier on Saturday. But the jockey's celebrations were cut short after the 9-2 winner unshipped him moments after striding to victory. Lazzat, who is trained by Jerome Reynier and part-owned by the Emir of Qatar, then set off freely around the track, wildly galloping into the distance. Ascot staff desperately tried to chase Lazzat down but were unable to stop the four-year-old, who clearly had lots of energy left to burn. He was eventually retrieved and led to the winner's enclosure. "It's not a matador" 😆 Lazzat wants to continue the #RoyalAscot celebrations without James Doyle 😅 — ITV Racing (@itvracing) June 21, 2025 It came just moments after they held off favourite Satono Reve by just half a length to deny a first Japanese-trained winner at Royal Ascot and seal a first French win of the 2025 meeting. Doyle, 37, was unhurt despite being flung to the floor and laughed about it during his interview with ITV. Speaking after his win, he said: 'Trying to flash the sheet at him and he went around, but yeah, what can you say? 'I can't take any credit for this at all. Jerome and his team, they know all about him. 'His jockey from before, his young jockey in France, did a great job bringing him through the ranks. He also rode him in Australia when he ran such a good race in the Golden Eagle. We had all bases covered and I have to say that Jerome was very confident. 'He was saying all week: "Don't worry about the ground, he's fine". We mapped the pace out and I just thought: 'If I end up winning, I end up winning'. He [Reynier] said: "Don't worry, he won't stop". It worked out perfectly. 'I could feel him [Satono Reve] coming, but you won't get a more genuine horse than this. He really pinned his ears back when he joined me and he was always going to fend it off.' 'It does help when you get a double on the first day, you can just relax into it. If I had a pound for every time someone said to me: "That's it, the pressure is off"... but it's completely the opposite.

Emma Raducanu handed tough draw on return from injury

Emma Raducanu is expected to return to action at next week's Lexus Eastbourne Open despite an ongoing back problem. The 22-year-old has been managing the back issue since May, which led her to withdraw from the Berlin Open to prioritise recovery for Wimbledon. Raducanu has been handed a challenging draw at Eastbourne, facing American Ann Li in the first round. Should she advance, Raducanu could potentially play two-time Wimbledon runner-up Ons Jabeur in the second round and defending champion Daria Kasatkina in the quarter-finals. Raducanu described her back issue as a 'vulnerability' requiring careful management, though she is not overly concerned about its seriousness.
