Bath’s Olly Barkley has been drafted into the England team to replace injured Paul Grayson at fly-half for the RBS Six Nations match at Twickenham on Saturday. The 22-year-old will be making his first start in England colours.

Barkley made his England debut as a 19-year-old against the United States in San Francisco as a replacement. He is a surprise replacement after being omitted from Sir Clive Woodward’s twenty-two man squad earlier in the week.

Grayson has withdrawn from the team because of the calf injury he collected when training on Tuesday. Mike Catt remains on the bench.
