Jones – who has scored three tries on tour to date – was denied a Test try only by the Television Match Official, whilst his tally for tries and metres made with ball in hand are bettered only by Duhan van der Merwe.
Victory on Saturday would give the British & Irish Lions a first Test series victory since 2013, when a Warren Gatland-led squad claimed a 2-1 series win over the Wallabies.
Supporters can watch the match live on Sky Sports, with kick-off scheduled for 11am this Saturday.
