July 16 : England coach Steve Borthwick has named an unchanged starting team for the Nations Championship test against Argentina in Santiago del Estero on Saturday, with loose-forward Henry Pollock on the bench again.

• Borthwick has placed his trust in the team that defeated Fiji 73-8 in Liverpool last weekend, with Fin Smith again at flyhalf and Marcus Smith at fullback.

• Uncapped loosehead prop Emmanuel Iyogun should make his debut as a replacement having been named on the bench. Scrumhalf Ben Spencer is also among the replacements and will be hoping to earn a 19th cap.

• Borthwick resisted calls to start Pollock and for the third game in July he will be a replacement.
