Tom Curry is ready to follow Courtney Lawes into battle against world champions South Africa on Saturday, in the absence of injured England captain Owen Farrell.

Northampton forward Lawes stood in as skipper in the autumn opener against Tonga and is expected to take on the role again for the clash with the fearsome Springboks at Twickenham. Head coach Eddie Jones is announcing his line-up on Wednesday and the 32-year-old veteran has been backed to serve as a commanding figurehead for a patched-up national side.

At the start of the month, Lawes was named as a vice-captain, as was Curry, who is happy to fall in line behind the in-form Saint.
