Steve Borthwick has named his 26-man squad, as England take on Wales in Round three of the 2023 Guinness Six Nations. A late re-admission for Ben Curry sees him replace his brother Tom, who has again been pulled out of the squad through injury.

England were able to secure their first win of the Steve Borthwick era, in their latest win against Italy, and got off the mark in the competition. Wales are two losses out of two, and are currently in the midst of a financial crisis, with player’s threatening to strike the fixture on Saturday.
Due to the threatened strike action, Wales have delayed their squad annoucement. However, England have announced the 26-man squad that Steve Borthwick has retained for their third match of the 2023 Guinness Six Nations.
