ITV's free to air coverage of the match on the opening day of the 2021 Guinness Six Nations series was watched by an overall average of 6.4 million and 36 per cent of the available audience watching television yesterday afternoon.
The coverage was popular among young viewers with almost half of 16-34 viewers tuning in - an average of 46 per cent and one million, peaking with 1.3m and 56 per cent.
