Eddie Jones has promised change following England's dismal Six Nations campaign, stating that his squad could be ‘60 per cent’ different once the 2023 World Cup rolls around.
Their three-match summer tour to North America
is set to be relocated to this country because of the coronavirus crisis. Then they are scheduled to play the USA Eagles, Canada and Scotland.
It's been revealed that England aren’t keen on travelling while restrictions in both the United States and Canada mean they are struggling to host games.
With a number of England stars likely to be away with the Lions in South Africa, we look at the youthful team Jones could go with.
The match-day squad is a mix of experience and lads capable of making the step-up in the next year.
