Dusautoir set to miss England clash
Thierry Dusautoir will miss France’s first Rugby World Cup warm-up match against England due to injury.
The France captain played an influential role for his country at the last Rugby World Cup when Les Bleus made the final.
Dusautoir picked up a knee injury in training and as a result won’t be risked for the first of a series of warm-up games for France against England at Twickenham on August 15.
Philippe Saint-André is currently preparing with 36 players ahead of cutting his squad down to 31 by the August 31st deadline when final World Cup squads must be submitted.
Dusautoir is targeting his third World Cup after featuring in 2007 and 2011 and will be a key player for France as they battle with Six Nations champions Ireland in their pool.
