Super strong English team announced! Emily Scarratt will make her 100th cap at Welford Road!
Return to action for (World Player of the Year) Zoe Aldcroft, Amy Cokayne and Hannah Botterman. Helena Rowland the only real experiment at 15.
Unfortunately, Ireland have been weakened by their Sevens team nicking several of their starters. They'll likely find it a tough afternoon.
Looks like the weather will hold.
