Lions prop Kyle Sinckler has been cited for biting in their second test match defeat against South Africa on Sunday.

The incident is alleged to have taken place during a ruck in the 64th minute.

Sinckler could face a minimum of a 12-week ban if the citing is upheld by the Disciplinary committee today.

The England prop in January was suspended for two weeks for swearing at a referee and four years ago he received a seven-week ban for gouging.

Lions coach, Warren Gatland says they will spend the next couple of days reviewing the game and then looking at what they think is the best 23 to put out this week.

The Lions will face South Africa in the final test at 4am this Sunday.
