Manu Tuilagi and Marland Yarde have been restored to England's squad ahead of Sunday's RBS Six Nations clash with Wales, the Rugby Football Union has announced.

Tuilagi and Yarde have recovered from the respective pectoral and hip injuries that have prevented them from participating in the championship to date.

The three-quarter duo will arrive at England's training camp in Bagshot on Monday night, but neither player is likely to be involved against Wales.
