England have suffered a blow ahead of Saturday’s rugby union Women’s Six Nations Grand Slam decider against France at Twickenham, with Ellie Kildunne ruled out due to a hamstring injury.

The full-back has scored four tries in four appearances so far this championship, while she was named 2024’s World Women’s Player of the Year.

Emma Sing takes her place for the third start of her international career in a team that has eight changes.

Just one point separates the sides at the top of the table, with reigning champions England winning 14 of the last 23 editions of the competition.
