Red Rose summon Tait and Shaw for All Blacks battle

SIMON SHAW and Mathew Tait have both been included in the England squad for Saturday’s final Investec Challenge showdown with New Zealand at Twickenham.

Shaw, the 36-year-old Wasps lock, missed the first two autumn internationals as he completed his comeback from a foot injury and England have missed his physical presence in the second row.

Martin Johnson will confirm his starting side at midday today but it would be highly surprising if Shaw did not feature in the second row alongside captain Steve Borthwick.
