decider

It was Monday evening and day one of a week's preparation that ends with a Women's Six Nations Grand Slam decider against France at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham on Saturday was done.

Sing got in touch with Mitchell to find out Kildunne had a minor hamstring injury, so she would be starting the Grand Slam decider.

Saracens' Zoe Harrison started the World Cup final in 2022 and advanced her case in victories over Wales and Ireland, with the 27-year-old picked to start the decider because of her tactical kicking game.

Gloucester-Hartpury's Emma Sing will start at full-back in the place of injured Ellie Kildunne for England's Women's Six Nations Grand Slam decider against France on Saturday.

Cross was on a five-match losing run against Littler, but looked to be on course to seal the decider before his opponent nailed a 145 finish.
