Fly-half Fin Smith will start for England against Australia after recovering from a calf injury. The 24-year-old has started England's previous five matches at number 10 and is included in the lineup alongside Sale flanker Ben Curry, who returns to Test rugby following an injury-plagued 16-month absence.
Ben Curry was selected to bolster England's breakdown contest after his twin brother, Tom Curry, was ruled out due to a training injury setback. Additionally, Alex Coles joins captain Maro Itoje in the second row, while Henry Slade starts at outside center as Joe Marchant and Will Joseph are omitted.
