Cox to make tournament bow
WARRIORS flanker Matt Cox will get his first start of the IRB Junior World Championships when he lines up for England under 20s against Canada in pool C' at Rodney Parade in Newport tomorrow (5pm).
The Sixways youngster takes his place at openside, but wing Miles Benjamin, who grabbed two tries in the 41-17 victory over Fiji, has to be content with a place on the bench.
Coach Nigel Redman's side go on to face Australia on June 14 at Newport and almost certainly need to win all three of their pool C' games to book a semi-final place against the pool B' winners - likely to be South Africa - at the Arms Park in Cardiff on June 18.
England Under 20: Cato (Saracens); Odejobi (Wasps), Eves (Bristol), Tait (Newcastle Falcons), Sharples (Gloucester); Miller (Newcastle Falcons), Youngs (Leicester Tigers); Moss (Bath), Gray (Northampton), Freer (Leeds), Lawes (Northampton), Gillanders (Leicester Tigers), Fisher (London Irish), Cox (Worcester Warriors), Ellis (Wasps, captain)
Replacements: Clark (London Irish), Corbisiero (London Irish), Thomas (Saracens), Hobson (Cornish Pirates), Simpson (Wasps), Goode (Saracens), Benjamin (Worcester Warriors).
