Lewis Chessum, Tim Hoyt and Emeka Ilione have named in the England Under-20s matchday squad for the final Six Nations fixture against France.

The Leicester Tigers have all been included in the starting forward pack for Sunday's game in Perpignan, with Ilione captaining the national side for a second successive fixture.

Chessum and Hoyt also retained their places in starting side, alongside Ilione, after featuring in last weekend's game against Ireland Under-20s.

Their Tigers team-mates Jacob Cusick and Sam Edwards, who also played against Ireland, have not been named for England after their inclusion in the club's matchday squad to travel to Newcastle for Friday night's Premiership Rugby Cup fixture.
