England make three changes for Wales game

Sam Burgess, Owen Farrell and Billy Vunipola have come into England's starting team ahead of their crucial World Cup Pool A game with Wales at the weekend. 

Farrell regains the number ten jersey from George Ford. It will be Farrell's first competitive start for England since their Six Nations game with Italy in March 2014. 

Billy Vunipola scored the crucial fourth try for England against Fiji last Friday night. He has been rewarded for his excellent performance off the bench in the game and replaces Ben Morgan at Number 8.

Rugby League convert Sam Burgess also impressed coming off the bench against Fiji. He replaces Jonathan Joseph who misses the game through injury. Burgess is replaced by Alex Goode on the bench. 

Both England and Wales go into the game with bonus point wins from the opening games. The games kicks off at 8pm on Saturday evening in Twickenham.
