Jones names Robshaw and Ford co-captain for Barbarians clash

Jones has opted for a blend of youth and experience in his starting XV, with a combined 246 caps shared between Harlequins' Danny Care and Mike Brown, Gloucester's Jonny May, Robshaw and Ford.

Eight uncapped players bring freshness to the line-up, with the likes of Jack Singleton, Will Collier, Nick Isiekwe, Sam Underhill, Alex Lozowski, Sam James, and Nathan Earle (Saracens) all set to start.

"The players have trained really well with intensity over the last few weeks and now we need to put that onto the field this weekend," Jones said in a statement on Thursday.

"While we have some really experienced players starting the game there is a great opportunity for some of the younger players to show what they are about against a Barbarians team full of quality international players."

Worcester Warriors's Ryan Mills and Nich Schonery and Harlequin duo Rob Buchanan and Marland Yarde are injured. Buchanan and Mills have been released from the camp.

England visit Argentina for two tests next month, after Sunday's game.
