Injury-enforced change for England ahead of Japan clash

NEWS: A training ground injury has forced Steve Borthwick to make a change to his squad ahead of England’s clash with Japan.

Cadan Murley will replace Elliot Daly, who has been ruled out due to injury, for England’s final match of the season at Twickenham this Sunday.

In another change, Charlie Ewels has been replaced by Tom Curry. Curry, who played in Englands 42-37 loss to Australia on November 9, was ruled out for the clash against the Springboks last week after sustaining a blow to the head.
