Six Nations 2024: Fit-again Hugo Keenan starts as Ireland make one change for England match

While Hugo Keenan returns to the team, Garry Ringrose does not make the 23 despite recovering from a shoulder injury

Hugo Keenan has recovered from a knee injury to start for Ireland against England in Saturday's Six Nations game at Twickenham.

The Leinster full-back missed Ireland's win over Wales a fortnight ago with Ciaran Frawley deputising.

Keenan's return is the only change to the line-up from the Wales game.

There is no place on the bench for James Ryan, who has been ruled out of the remainder of the tournament with a bicep injury sustained in training.

Ireland will retain the Six Nations title with a match to spare if they secure a bonus-point win over England.

Victory would also keep the world's number two ranked side on course for a second successive Grand Slam before their final fixture at home to Scotland on 16 March.

Centre Garry Ringrose is not included in the matchday 23 despite returning to fitness, with Farrell again opting for a split of six forwards and two backs on the bench.

Second row Iain Henderson has recovered from a toe injury to take Ryan's place on the bench, but Stuart McCloskey drops out of the squad with Conor Murray and Frawley selected as the two replacement backs.

Prop Oli Jager is not fit enough to make the squad with Finlay Bealham returning after missing the Wales encounter.

Ireland: H Keenan; C Nash, R Henshaw, B Aki, J Lowe; J Crowley, J Gibson-Park; A Porter, D Sheehan, T Furlong; J McCarthy, T Beirne, P O'Mahony (capt), J van der Flier, C Doris.

Replacements: R Kelleher, C Healy, F Bealham, I Henderson, R Baird, J Conan, C Murray, C Frawley.
