England have drafted Marland Yarde and James Haskell into their reduced 24-man squad to face the Springboks on Saturday at Twickenham.
Coach Staurt Lancaster released ten palyers from national due to return to play for their clubs.
Semesa Rokoduguni has been ruled out through injury, which saw Yarde called up to the Pennyhill training grounds.
Rokoduguni sustained an injury during his Test debut against the All Blacks last week, and the management have decided that he won’t recover in time.
Lancaster said he was happy with their set piece against the Kiwis’ they are looking to play 80 minute rugby against the Boks.
Saturday’s test at Twickenham kicks off at 16:30.
