Northampton Saints' apprentice centre Chris Hyndman will make his return to the first XV for Saturday's game against NEC Harlequins following his debut two years ago.
The 20-year-old made his debut for Saints against Birmingham Solihull in the Tetley's Bitter Cup in the absence of Allan Bateman, who was away with Wales in the autumn internationals.
Outside centre Hyndman went on to play against Bristol Shoguns and Newcastle Falcons during that international period, but since then has played the majority of his
rugby with Northampton Saints U21s, aside from a couple of bench places this season for the first team squad.
The rest of the team remains largely unchanged from the side that was defeated by Leeds Tykes last Sunday. Bruce Reihana has moved from outside centre to the wing, Chris Budgen comes in for England replacement Robbie Morris, and Oriol Ripol will start the game on the bench.
Head coach Wayne Smith said: "International games and injuries have depleted our squad, however I prefer to think that come next June, we will look back on this as a lucky period. The game against Leeds threw up some young men who were prepared to put their bodies on the line in the Saints jersey."
Saturday's game kicks off at noon and the England v South Africa game will be shown on screens around Franklin's Gardens.
