Retained by new head coach Andy Farrell in his squad for the 2020 Six Nations Championship, Murray started in Ireland's 19–12 opening win against Scotland on 1 February 2020,[148] and in their 24–14 win against defending champions Wales on 8 February,[149] and their 24–12 defeat against England,[150] before the tournament was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[151] The tournament eventually resumed in October 2020, with Murray starting in Ireland's 50–17 win against Italy[152] and the 35–27 defeat against France in their final fixture of the tournament.[153]

With the usual format of end-of-year international tests not possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Ireland instead participated in the Autumn Nations Cup. Murray was used as a replacement in the 32–9 opening win against Wales on 13 November[154] and in the 18–7 defeat against England on 21 November,[155] then started in the 23–10 win against Georgia on 29 November,[156] and the 31–16 win against Scotland on 5 December, which secured a third-place finish for Ireland in the tournament.[157] Murray was named in World Rugby's Men's 15s Team of the Decade for 2010–2019 in December 2020.[158]

Murray started in Ireland's 21–16 defeat against Wales in their opening 2021 Six Nations Championship fixture,[159] however, Murray sustained a hamstring during training which ruled him out of Ireland's next three fixtures,[160] though he returned from the injury to start for Ireland in their 32–18 win against England in the final round.[161] During the 2021 Autumn Nations Series, Murray featured as a replacement in Ireland's 60–5 win against Japan on 6 November,[162] and in the famous 29–20 win against New Zealand on 13 November,[163] before replacing the injured Jamison Gibson-Park to start in the 53–7 win against Argentina in Ireland's final fixture of the series on 21 November.[164]

After Jamison Gibson-Park pulled out before kick-off due to injury, Murray was promoted to the starting XV for Ireland's opening fixture of the 2023 Six Nations Championship against Wales on 4 February, being replaced by Munster teammate Craig Casey during the second-half of Ireland's 34–10 away win.[177] With Gibson-Park also ruled out of the round two fixture at home to France on 11 February, Murray retained his place in Ireland's starting XV. There was doubt as to whether or not Murray would be available for the match after his father, Gerry, was involved in a road collision with a truck whilst cycling and suffered serious injuries,[178] however, Murray was able to start in Ireland's 32–19 win before being replaced during the second-half.[179] Murray featured as a replacement in Ireland's 34–20 away win against Italy in round three on 25 February,[180] before returning to the starting XV for the 22–7 away win against Scotland on 12 March.[181] With Gibson-Park selected to start in Ireland's final fixture of the tournament against England on 18 March, Murray was used as a replacement in the 29–16 home win that secured the grand slam for Ireland.[182]

2017

In April 2017, Murray was selected in the British & Irish Lions squad for the 2017 tour to New Zealand, his second Lions call-up.[199] On 10 June 2017, Murray made his first appearance and start for the Lions on the tour, doing so in the match against the Crusaders in AMI Stadium.[200][201] On 17 June, Murray made his second appearance of the tour, starting in the Lions record 32–10 victory against the Māori All Blacks in Rotorua International Stadium.[202] On 24 June, Murray started for the Lions in their 30–15 first test defeat against New Zealand in Eden Park, making his first test start for the side.[203][204] On 1 July, Murray started the second test against the All Blacks, scoring a try in the Lions 24–21 victory in Westpac Stadium. It was the Lions' first test win against New Zealand since 1993 and the first time New Zealand had lost a test at home since losing to South Africa in 2009.[205][206] Murray's try made him the first northern hemisphere player to score four tries against New Zealand.[207] On 8 July, Murray started in the third and final test, a 15–15 draw which meant the series against the All Blacks ended in a draw as well.[208][209]

2021

Murray was selected for his third British & Irish Lions tour when the squad for the 2021 tour to South Africa was announced in May 2021.[210] Following original captain Alun Wyn Jones' injury in the warm-up match against Japan on 26 June, Murray was made the new captain by head coach by Warren Gatland, with Gatland citing the regard Murray is held in by his fellow players and his previous Lions experience as factors in the decision,[211] whilst Murray himself described becoming Lions captain as an "unbelievable honour".[212] Extraordinarily, Jones recovered from his injury in time to rejoin the tour before the tests and resumed the captaincy.[213]

Murray made his first appearance of the 2021 tour in the aforementioned 28–10 warm-up win against Japan on 26 June,[214] before featuring off the bench in the 71–31 win against the Sharks on 10 July[215] and starting in the 17–13 defeat against South Africa 'A' on 14 July.[216] To the surprise of some, Scottish scrum-half Ali Price was selected ahead of Murray to start the first test against South Africa on 24 July,[217] though Murray featured off the bench to help the Lions close out a 22–17 win against the Springboks.[218] The victory made Murray one of only ten players to have won a Lions test match against all three of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.[219] Murray was restored to the starting XV ahead of the second test,[220] which South Africa won 27–9 on 31 July to take the series to a deciding third test,[221] for which head coach Gatland again selected Ali Price to start,[222] with Murray coming on as a replacement in South Africa's tense 19–16 win, which secured a 2–1 series victory for the Springboks.[223]
