With both Anthony Watson and Owen Farrell not making the cut, we've combined his thoughts from his Mail Online column and his recent tweets to present his preferred lineup.

It's box-office.

Cipriani said: '"Everybody at Leicester has been raving about Steward for a while and I would like to think England are as excited at his exceptional attacking potential as well as his towering presence under the high ball, for which he is best known."

Cipriani said: "I've gone for Malins on the left wing because most teams have right-footed kickers, so he can work on the pendulum with Steward, who should start at full back."

Cipriani said: "This fella has left the country, had 4 years in a serious professional sport, come back and is still the best winger in England.

“I reckon it’s exactly the type of player our national team could do with at the World Cup…”

Cipriani said: "Watching the Premiership, I’ve seen Slade play over the top of a blitz defence many a time. He can throw big 30-yard passes, off both hands, looping over the top of defenders."

Cipriani wrote: "You want Manu Tuilagi running hard lines but you want your wingers holding their width to get on the end of those pass."

Cipriani said: "It's tough on Owen Farrell because he has started the season so well but Smith has picked up from where he left off last season."

CIpriani said: "I'm going for Harry Randall at nine because of the speed he plays at. He reads the game quickly and he's the most similar option to Danny Care."
