England Names 10 Uncapped Players for Argentina, US Rugby Tour

England's rugby coach Steve Borthwick has named a 36-man squad for the summer tour of Argentina and the United States, featuring 10 uncapped players as he aims to build depth and provide new opportunities amid the absence of players on British and Irish Lions duty. The uncapped players include Charlie Atkinson, Seb Atkinson, Arthur Clark, Will Muir, Max Ojomoh, Guy Pepper, Oscar Beard, Luke Northmore, Joe Carpenter, and Emmanuel Iyogun. Jamie George and George Ford will co-captain the squad for matches against Argentina on July 5 and 12, and the United States on July 19. Despite a suspension, Immanuel Feyi-Waboso has been included in the squad and will be available for the final match after completing a tackle course. Borthwick emphasized the tour as a vital opportunity for squad development and team bonding, noting the historical significance of previous tours in developing key players. In cricket, South Africa has named four uncapped players, including standout domestic performer Lhuan-dré Pretorius, for their upcoming T20I tri-series.
