Care And Joseph Start For England Against Wales In 6 Nations / MUK Sports News 08/02/2018

United Kingdom, (MUK Sports News - 08th Feb, 2018 ):Record-breaker Danny Care and Jonathan Joseph have both been recalled to England's back division for their Six Nations clash with Wales at Twickenham on Saturday.

Care will become England's most capped scrum-half when he makes his 78th Red Rose appearance to move past 2003 Rugby World Cup winner Matt Dawson. Meanwhile Joseph starts at outside centre in the only other change to the starting XV that kicked off England's Six Nations title defence with a 46-15 win away to Italy last weekend.

England coach Eddie Jones was forced into making at least one change after first-choice scrum-half Ben Youngs went off after just 10 minutes at Rome's Stadio Olimpico with a knee injury that has ended his involvement in the Six Nations.

Care came off the bench to play in the rest of the match. Meanwhile Joseph, a classic running centre, came in for Ben Te'o after the powerful Worcester midfielder impressed against Italy. Earlier this week, Saracens star Richard Wigglesworth was called into the squad and he filled the vacancy on the bench left by Care's promotion in the matchday 23 announced by Jones on Thursday.

England (15-1) Mike Brown, Anthony Watson, Jonathan Joseph, Owen Farrell, Jonny May; GeorgeFord, Danny Care; Sam Simmonds, Chris Robshaw, Courtney Lawes; Maro Itoje, Joe Launchbury; Dan Cole, Dylan Hartley (capt), Mako Vunipola Replacements: Jamie George, Alec Hepburn, Harry Williams, George Kruis, Sam Underhill, Richard Wigglesworth, Ben Te'o, Jack Nowell.
