    England will pair twins Ben and Tom Curry in the back row together for the first time in their Six Nations rugby opener against Ireland on the weekend


    The brothers' only previous appearance in a match-day 23 came against New Zealand in November when Ben replaced Tom in the second-half.

    Coach Steve Borthwick has also named debutant wing Cadan Murley for the Dublin match.

    Maro Itoje will captain the side for the first time, having taken over from Jamie George who is absent through injury.
