Dee Croft earns her first cap replacing Jamie Kift as hooker, following a knee injury earlier in the week.

Props, Dawn Mason and Kath Lenaghan will be under pressure to perform as Amy Broadstock, who received her first cap a fortnight ago, will be eager to play a part in the game.

Louise Rickard, who stars in the BBC2 documentary, ‘SAS – Are you tough enough?’ on Sunday night, plays at outside centre with Claire Flowers and Sue Jones on the Wings. Naomi Thomas, who has won ‘man of the match’ in the last two internationals, plays at full back.

National Manager, Gareth Kear commented, “After our first two games, where we won one, lost one, we feel that we have to pull together all the positives from both previous games. We know we have the ability to beat Spain and although it will be a difficult challenge playing in Madrid, if we can stay focused and play to our strengths, it is a game that we can win.”

The Game kicks off at 12.30pm on Sunday at the Spanish National ground in Madrid.
