Four Saracens selected to face Ireland
Jess Breach, Zoe Harrison, Rosie Galligan and Kelsey Clifford will all feature for the Red Roses in Round Three of the Guinness Women's Six Nations.
Abby Dow will earn her 50th Red Roses cap on Saturday when John Mitchell’s side take on Ireland at Virgin Media Park, Cork.
The Trailfinders Women wing scored twice last time out against Wales, taking her try tally for England to 43 in 49 games to date since her two-try debut against Canada in 2017.
She forms part of a backline which is unchanged from Round 2 with head coach Mitchell making three changes to the pack.
Gloucester-Hartpury back row Alex Matthews returns for her first appearance of the tournament with club teammate Maud Muir and Bristol Bear Hannah Botterman coming into the front row.
