The Rugby Paper are reporting that Danny Cipriani is potentially being lined up by Pat Lam to run-out for the Barbarians against England next weekend.

This would come a year after Chris Ashton used his appearance in this fixture against England to force his way back into the Test team set-up via the Baa-Baas route.

Cipriani’s only England appearance since Jones took over following the 2015 World Cup came against South Africa in Cape Town last June when he started at fly-half alongside Farrell at inside centre.
