Ben Ainslie gives England's rugby team advice

Ainslie has paid a private visit to the England camp to speak to the squad about his own experiences of overcoming adversity as they prepare to face the daunting challenge of a visit from the world champions.

Stuart Lancaster is hoping he can have the same effect as Sir Bradley Wiggins, who spoke to the squad ahead of the autumn series two years when they last beat New Zealand.

If anyone knows what it takes to knock off the Kiwis in an important contest it is the four-time Olympic gold medallist who led Oracle Team USA to their extraordinary comeback victory over Team New Zealand in the America's Cup last year.
