Kelly Brown is one of only two changes to the Scotland 22 that played Ireland last weekend.

The other change sees Scott Gray replace John Barclay to make his first Scotland start since his debut cap.

Scotland coach Frank Hadden said: “Scott has been knocking on the door for some time now and deserves this opportunity, while we’ve gone for Kelly on the bench for the coverage that he provides.

“We’re looking forward to going to Twickenham and seeking back to back Calcutta Cup wins for the first time since 1984.”

Warriors centres Max Evans and Graeme Morrison retain their places in the back-line alongside winger Thom Evans whilst hooker Dougie Hall and prop Moray Low are named amongst the replacements.
