Bath flanker Guy Pepper has been named in England's 36-player training squad for their match against a France XV at Allianz Stadium Twickenham on Saturday. The 22-year-old, who has previously trained with England, was instrumental in Bath's 23-21 victory over Leicester, earning the player of the match title as Bath secured their first Premiership title in 29 years.

England head coach Steve Borthwick has also selected nine other players who featured in the final, including try scorers Max Ojomoh of Bath and Leicester's Jack van Poortvliet. However, Bath flanker Sam Underhill, who has been selected, is serving the final match of a four-game ban for a dangerous tackle.

Ben Curry, Fraser Dingwall, George Furbank, and Harry Randall are currently undergoing rehabilitation programmes with the national team. Notably, players selected for the British and Irish Lions tour of Australia have not been included in this squad.

Borthwick is set to announce his touring squad for the summer Tests against Argentina and the USA on 23 June.
