(Reuters) - Wales have added versatile loose-forward James Botham to their squad for their one-off test against South Africa in London on Saturday, officials have confirmed.

Botham, 26, the grandson of former England cricket great Ian, could get the chance to add to his 10 international caps despite having been left out of coach Warren Gatland’s original selection.
