The semi-finals will start at 12.56am tomorrow and the cup final will be at 5.23am tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile, the Fijiana 7s will meet France at 7.44 tonight, Australia will play Ireland in the second Cup quarter-final at 7pm and Great Britain will play the USA at 8.06pm.

The women’s semi-finals will start at 12.12am tomorrow and the cup final will be at 4.43am.
