Henry Pollock has vowed to stay true to himself in Australia this summer with his British and Irish Lions team-mate Alex Mitchell comparing his rise to that of darts star Luke Littler.

Pollock is the youngest tourist in Andy Farrell’s 38-man squad having been selected as a bolter just three months after competing in the Under-20 Six Nations for England.
