England will be without Elliot Daly and Immanuel Feyi-Waboso for Sunday’s match against Japan, but Tom Curry is fit to feature.
Steve Borthwick’s side will be looking to end their autumn series on a winning note having fallen to the All Blacks, Australia and South Africa this November.
Borthwick suggested after the Springboks match that he may rotate the squad slightly for the Test on Sunday and he has brought in Cadan Murley as a replacement for the injured Daly.
While Daly misses out, Feyi-Waboso is still out with concussion after he was forced off against Australia on Nov. 9. Tom Curry was also injured against the Wallabies, but he makes his return to the squad. Curry replaces Charlie Ewels in 36-player group.
