England coach Stuart Lancaster hints at changes for second Test

England coach Stuart Lancaster suggests that he will make several changes to his team for next weekend's second Test against New Zealand.

England coach Stuart Lancaster has suggested that he will make multiple changes for his team's second Test against New Zealand next weekend.

The tourists were without several key players on Saturday as they were beaten 20-15 by the All Blacks in Auckland to go 1-0 down in the three-Test series.

However, Danny Care, Billy Twelvetrees and Owen Farrell are expected to be fit enough to return from injury for their encounter with the world champions in Dunedin.

"The impact of the bench will be important in the second Test and perhaps the rotation that we put in between the second and third Tests might come into the equation as well," Lancaster is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

Courtney Lawes and Tom Wood are also likely to be brought back by Lancaster for next weekend.
