England head into the Six Nations 2023 with a fresh look as new head coach Steve Borthwick announced his squad with several surprises included.
Borthwick has taken the reins following the dismissal of Eddie Jones and has wasted no time putting his stamp on the squad.
Billy Vunipola and Jonny May are among the veteran names to be cut from the squad ahead of the 2023 tournament, adding pressure to Borthwick’s shoulders ahead of his first game – the small matter of Scotland at Twickenham.
