Australia vs British & Irish Lions live: Latest score and updates as tourists chase historic whitewash

The list of Test-series winning Lions skippers is relatively short, ensuring that Maro Itoje has a place in the pantheon. It’s a ninth straight Test, and eighth consecutive Test start, for the lock tonight.

The Lions have been pretty rugby-focussed since arriving in Australia, but they celebrated long into the night last weekend.

Will look ahead to tonight’s action a little later, but let us first look back on a dramatic second Test in Melbourne at a rocking MCG.

Yes, history is within reach for Andy Farrell’s men – but they probably need to win and win well today to really mark themselves out as a great Lions side, something that has been their stated ambition since coming together.

With the Test series secure, the British and Irish Lions are hunting history as they take on the Wallabies for the final time in Sydney. Can the tourists secure a 3-0 clean sweep to really cement their legacy? Or will Australia hit back having come so close in Melbourne last week?
