Tindall returns to England team

Mike Tindall returns to the England team as captain and one of 13 changes for Saturday's match against Wales in Cardiff knowing he needs a strong performance to retain his position throughout the World Cup. Tindall missed last week's 23-19 victory over the Welsh at Twickenham following his marriage to the Queen's grand-daughter Zara Phillips. He watched from the stands as 20-year-old Manu Tuilagi enjoyed a try-scoring debut in his place at outside centre. Thursday manager Martin Johnson selected him alongside his regular partner from last season, Shontayne Hape, but Tindall will be conscious that Tuilagi is putting the pressure on the duo, who barely miss a tackle but also rarely make a linebreak. Tindall, who led England to four successive wins en route to the Six-Nations title, resumes the captaincy after Lewis Moody was ruled out with the knee injury sustained last week. Toby Flood is another coming back under some pressure after Jonny Wilkinson's man-of-the-match performance at flyhalf last week, while Richard Wigglesworth gets a rare chance to start at scrumhalf ahead of Danny Care as Ben Youngs continues his recovery from knee surgery. Winger Chris Ashton and fullback Ben Foden, key players for England's attacking hopes, come in, with left wing Mark Cueto one of only two starters from last week to retain their places.
