The Telegraph revealed “Sinckler is expected to be named ahead of more experienced tighthead props including Scotland’s W P Nel, Zander Fagerson and Wales duo Tomas Francis and Samson Lee and could be one of three surprise selections.
“Sinckler’s England team-mate Ben Te’o, who has made just one start in his eight caps on the international stage, is also understood to be in strong contention for one of the five midfield berths.”
