Having gained his first England U20s cap off the bench against South Africa last Friday, former Weston-super-Mare Colt Andrew Turner is again named as a replacement for round two of the Six Nations Under-20 Summer Series at the Payanini Centre, Verona, against France on Wednesday (June 29), kick off at 4pm BST.

England U20s head coach, Alan Dickens, has made four changes to the starting lineup. Conor Oresanya (Harlequins), who scored a try having come off the bench against South Africa, starts at left wing, and scrum half, Charlie Bracken (Saracens) is in the starting fifteen this week.

Amongst the forwards, Ollie Fletcher (Newcastle Falcons), makes his first appearance in the series as hooker and number 8, Toby Knight (Saracens), moves from the bench to the start the game.

Dickens, speaking ahead of the second round said:  “Taking the positives from our game against South Africa has been important as we prepare for tomorrow’s game.

“The three tries from Stewart, Ilione and Oresanya were pleasing and to perform against France, who had a strong start against Ireland in the first round, we need to keep focus on our set piece and maintain our discipline.

“The players have been training hard and are looking forward to facing France in round two.”
