England have a replica kit shortage for their Women’s Rugby World Cup shirt after a supply chain error by manufacturer Castore.

England have named an unchanged side for their Women's Rugby World Cup opener against the United States in Sunderland on Friday. Red Roses boss John Mitchell has kept faith with the same starting 15 from the 40-6 warm-up victory over France, their second of two warm-up fixtures which took place earlier this month.

The World Cup features the best 16 teams in the world, and the games will be played across the country from Sunderland to Bristol. The Red Roses look to seek revenge for their final defeat in 2021
