2020 Kangaroo tour of England

The 2020 Kangaroo Tour was a planned tour by the Australia national rugby league team in England which was going to be the first Kangaroo tour since 2003. Australia would have played three test matches against England in the first Ashes series since 2003. On 1 June 2020, due to scheduling complications resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour was cancelled.[1]

The test matches were scheduled for 31 October; 7 November and 14 November, and would have been played at three soccer grounds; the University of Bolton Stadium, Horwich; Elland Road, Leeds; and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London respectively.[2]
