The Wallaroos will battle it out for the WXV 2 title as they face Scotland in Cape Town.

Jo Yapp's side have put together back-to-back wins over South Africa and Wales to control their destiny heading into the final round.

Watch the Wallaroos tackle Scotland to decide WXV 2 live and exclusively on Stan Sport.

Backrower Ashley Marsters will break the record for most caps by a Wallaroo as she plays her 34th Test.

Meanwhile, Scotland were forced to dig deep to defeat a spirited Japanese outfit last week.

They sit two points behind the Australians with scrumhalf Leia Brebner-Holden making her first start.
