Noah Caluori selected in England squad for Autumn Nations Series ahead of Saturday’s test match against Australia | Rugby union news
Teenage winger Noah Caluori has been named in the England squad for the Autumn Nations Series.
Caluori, the 19-year-old Saracens winger, scored a sensational five tries against Sale Sharks in his first Prem Rugby start.
He has propelled himself into England’s race as head coach Steve Borthwick names his squad for the upcoming Quilter Nations Series, which begins on Saturday 1 November when England take on Australia at Allianz Stadium (3:10pm kick-off).
The 36-man squad, made up of 19 forwards and 17 backs, meets on Sunday evening at England’s Performance Center at Pennyhill Park.
“The selection of this team is an exciting step in our preparations for the Quilter Nations Series, and we look forward to working with the players again in the coming weeks,” Borthwick said.
“Our goal is to make the most of our time together as we approach what will be an extremely competitive series.
“Facing Australia in the opening match will be a big test against a team that has been training and playing together for some time and is one of the in-form teams in the world.”
England’s match against the Wallabies is followed by home matches at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, against Fiji, New Zealand and Argentina.
