July 2024 Internationals – Potential Americas Player Cap Milestones

The July 2024 Internationals will be a busy period for the Americas. The full schedule sees test matches taking place in seven different countries. The leading players from the region will be looking to win matches for their country. For some this will come with additional motivation in the form of milestones.

This article identifies the players who can reach a milestone during the July Internationals if selected. Rosters will be announced in the weeks before the July Internationals begin. Some players included may not or will not feature. Emiliano Boffelli, for instance, is out following surgery.

The players are listed per country per position and according to how many test caps they presently have. Identified cap targets are 25 caps, 50 caps, 65 caps, 85 caps and 100 caps. 75 caps is excluded simply because no active player Americas player will be able to reach that milestone in the 2024 July Internationals.
