Martin starts in the second row for England against Chile on Saturday afternoon, the 22-year-old having come off the bench in round one. Clubmates Ollie Chessum and Ben Youngs will add impact as replacements.

Montoya will captain Argentina from hooker on Friday night, with backrower Wiese’s Springboks taking on Ireland at 8pm Saturday, the clash being one of the headline matchups of the tournament to date. 

Meanwhile, Solomone Kata - who will join Tigers at the conclusion of the Cup - will start on the wing for Tonga in their match against Scotland.
