April 2 (Reuters) - Acting coach Senirusi Seruvakula ⁠will lead Fiji in their first three matches of the inaugural Nations Championship against Wales, ⁠England and Scotland in July, Fiji Rugby Union (FRU) chief Koli Sewabu has said.

Seruvakula was ‌appointed on Wednesday after Mick Byrne left the post with immediate effect following a disagreement over what Sewabu described as a "new direction" for the team heading into next year's World Cup in Australia.
