Owen Farrell, the former England captain, has been confirmed as Elliot Daly’s replacement as Lions head coach Andy Farrell makes 14 changes for their warm-up games against the NSW Waratahs on Saturday.

British & Irish Lions coach Andy Farrell said his decision to bring his son Owen to Australia as an injury replacement for Elliot Daly was made as much for his experience of three previous tours as for his playing ability.

Owen Farrell is set to join the British and Irish Lions squad in Australia, sources have told ESPN. Englishman Farrell will join the camp after utility back Elliot Daly sustained an arm injury in Wednesday's 52-12 win over the Queensland Reds in Brisbane. He was sent for an x-ray after the match.
