PARIS (AP) Flyhalf Romain Ntamack and center Virimi Vakatawa have been selected in France’s 31-man squad on Sunday for next weekend’s Six Nations match against England.
They were key players during last season’s Six Nations campaign, where the French finished a narrow second behind England, and at the 2019 World Cup in Japan.
Ntamack stood out for his slick passing, composure under pressure and accurate kicking game, while Vakatawa imposed himself as one the game’s most explosive centers after switching from the wing.
But they missed the first two matches of this year’s Six Nations and the postponed one against Scotland as they recovered from injuries sustained on club duty.
