England’s 23‑strong squad for the Rugby League World Cup has been announced, with Australia‑born second‑row forward Jasmin Strange among four players who could make their first appearance for the national side.

Strange, who has represented England at the junior level, is one of four potential debutants in the squad, signalling the selectors’ willingness to inject fresh talent into the team.

The squad, which will compete in the World Cup, blends experienced internationals with emerging players, creating a balanced mix of skill and potential.

Strange’s inclusion underscores the depth of England’s forward pack and the confidence the coaching staff has in his abilities to perform on the world stage.

The team will face a challenging group of opponents in the opening stages of the tournament, testing the new additions and the established core alike.
