England XV name squad for Barbarians

England XV head coach Jim Mallinder has named his squad to begin preparations for the Quilter Cup match against the Barbarians on Sunday 2 June at Twickenham Stadium (KO 3:30pm, live on Sky Sports).

23 players will assemble on Monday at the Lensbury Hotel in Teddington for a week-long camp.

Due to his inclusion in the England XV squad Marcus Smith (Harlequins) will not travel with England U20s to Argentina for the World Rugby U20 Championship.

Mallinder will be joined by Phil Dowson (Northampton Saints) as forwards coach, Dave Walder (Newcastle Falcons) as attack coach and Joe El Abd (Castres Olympique) as defence coach.

England Women will play the Barbarians Women earlier on Sunday, kicking off at 12:45 BST.

Tickets for the Barbarians double header are available from £20 for adults and £10 for juniors - book yours here.
