For the Japan and New Zealand tour, Borthwick has selected a 36-man roster.
However, the backline has a green look to it with a few major players retiring or injured, despite the forwards having a veteran core.
“Leap right in; sometimes that’s the best thing you can do,” Borthwick stated.
During an extensive conversation on the Rugby Union Weekly podcast, Borthwick stated: “I want players to be visible. I don’t want players to believe they can avoid making mistakes. I want them to enter the game with their unique perspective and try to win.
Despite our inexperience, we have excellent players.
Cap centurion Danny Care has stepped down from international duties following the Six Nations, while Manu Tuilagi, who has 60 caps, is no longer available after joining French team Bayonne.
Fly half in 96 caps Due to injuries to George Ford and Elliot Daly, who has 66 caps, Henry Slade has the most experience among backs with 62 games, followed by Marcus Smith, who has just 32.
To make matters worse, Borthwick has selected six backs from Northampton, including the uncapped Ollie Sleightholme, as well as the uncapped but highly effective Tom Roebuck and Joe Carpenter from Sale.
