Mike Tindall returns to training after sitting out yesterday with a dead leg.

Under-fire England centre Mike Tindall has returned to training after being on the sidelines yesterday (Tuesday) with a dead leg.

Second-choice fly-half Toby Flood wore the 12 bib during training yesterday in place of Tindall and ran drills with fly-half Jonny Wilkinson.

Flood is still in contention for the number 10 shirt and boasts a better kicking record at the tournament than his positional rival, with 10 from 13 as opposed to Wilkinson's nine from 20.

Martin Johnson will name his team for the quarter-final clash with France later this week.
