‘We keep each other in check’ says Lewis LudlamSquad recently returned from gruelling Verona training camp
England players are embracing a self-imposed cake ban during their World Cup training camp, with Lewis Ludlam saying the sacrifice will pay off at the tournament in France. Steve Borthwick’s squad recently returned from a gruelling week of heat training in 40C (104F) temperatures in Verona and are continuing to fine-tune their preparations at their traditional Bagshot base.
Borthwick will cut his 39-man group to 33 on 7 August, two days after England’s first warmup match, against Wales.
