England name Curry twins in starting line-up for first time

ENGLAND have sprung a surprise by uniting the Curry twins in their back row for Saturday’s Six Nations opener against Ireland in Dublin.
For the first time, Tom and Ben Curry will feature together in the starting XV, filling the flanker positions either side of number eight Ben Earl. Tom Curry is given the number six jersey.
In another selection twist, Cadan Murley will make his debut on the left wing after being given the nod ahead of Ollie Sleightholme, who filled the position in England’s most recent outing against Japan in November.
