England pick banned player for tour of Argentina and US
Immanuel Feyi-Waboso has been included in England's 36-man summer tour squad, despite being suspended for the first two matches.
Hooker Jamie George and five-eighth George Ford will co-captain the group, which contains 10 uncapped players, for two Tests against Argentina and one against the United States.
Exeter wing Feyi-Waboso was sent off for a high tackle on Antoine Hastoy in the first half of Saturday's 26-24 loss to a France XV on his first appearance since suffering a dislocated shoulder in December.
Due to his ban, the 22-year-old will been unavailable for the matches against Los Pumas on July 5 and 12 in La Plata and San Juan respectively.
Subject to completing a tackle course, Feyi-Waboso, who has scored five tries in eight international caps, will return to contention for the clash with the US on July 19 in Washington DC.
Joe Carpenter, Seb Atkinson, Guy Pepper and Oscar Beard, who were involved in the non-capped contest with France, are joined in the squad by fellow potential Test debutants Charlie Atkinson, Arthur Clark, Emmanuel Iyogun, Will Muir, Luke Northmore and Max Ojomoh.
"For some of the younger players, this will be their first experience of touring overseas with England. Travelling together helps strengthen team bonds and offers a valuable chance for new players to integrate into our environment," said head coach Steve Borthwick.

Hazlewood bowls Aussies to victory in Windies opener
A bowling masterclass from Josh Hazlewood has helped Australia claim a resounding 159-run victory over the West Indies on day three of the Test series opener in Bridgetown. After a hotly contested first two days, Australia dominated on Friday (Saturday morning AEDT) with Hazlewood taking 5-43 as the tourists bowled their hosts out for 141 in their second dig. The Windies were thwarted by a collapse of 6-26 in pursuit of 301 for victory, but were boosted by Australia's frequent tormentor Shamar Joseph who cracked 44 runs off 22 balls - including four sixes - in a furious cameo at No.10. Veteran spinner Nathan Lyon (2-20) struck twice in the final over of the day to seal a win that helped Australia overcome their shock loss in the WTC final and start the three-match series on a high. The tourists are likely to regain the injured Steve Smith for the second Test that begins in Grenada next week after his absence was glaring on a tough batting deck earlier in the match. But Australia posted a competitive second-innings total of 310 on day three thanks largely to middle-order trio Travis Head (61), Beau Webster (63) and Alex Carey (65). In the final session, Hazlewood took all four scalps in a West Indies batting implosion of 4-9 that devastated the hosts' middle order and had the veteran on a hat-trick at one stage. Hazlewood broke the best partnership among the recognised batters, a 43-run stand between Keacy Carty and John Campbell, when Campbell (23) played a daring lap shot straight into Carey's gloves. On Hazlewood's next ball, debutant Brandon King (0) caught a high inside edge to Cameron Green, who made up for dropping a sitter by leaping high at gully. Captain Roston Chase (2) could not replicate a solid first innings, caught from by Sam Konstas at short leg, before Hazlewood bowled the established batter Carty with a ball that seamed in on the tricky pitch. Axed from the XI, Marnus Labuschagne made a valuable contribution as a substitute fielder, whipping a direct hit at the stumps from the other end of the wicket to run Alzarri Joseph (0) out. Hazlewood completed his 13th Test "five-fer" when Jomel Warrican (3) edged to Carey the ball after surviving an lbw review. The end appeared nigh for West Indies when unlikely top-scorer Joseph edged Lyon to Usman Khawaja in the slips. Earlier, No.5 Head (61 off 95 balls) ignited Australia's fightback after the tourists went to stumps on day two in a precarious position at 4-92. Head was trapped lbw by a low delivery from cult hero paceman Joseph (5-87), who was again the West Indies' most important bowler after his match-winning heroics in Brisbane 17 months ago. Showing impressive patience, the usually furious Head had been given a life earlier, spilt by Justin Greaves on 21 as one one of the hosts' seven dropped catches for the match. After bringing up a third Test half-century, towering allrounder Webster (63 off 120) fell to an unfortunate tickle down the leg side as Joseph picked up his third wicket. Carey, displaying some exciting stroke-making, was out caught in the deep by Greaves off Chase - the only Australian wicket that fell to spin for the match.

Beau Webster's DRS pain, Travis Head unlucky on day three
Don't miss out on the headlines from Sport. Followed categories will be added to My News. Australia have fought their way back into the first Test in Barbados with a trio of half-centuries to Alex Carey, Beau Webster and Travis Head. But, as has been the case throughout this Test, there was plenty happening at Bridgetown. Here's what you missed while you were sleeping. FOLLOW LIVE: Australia hunt wickets late on day three SEVENTH HELL West Indies coach Daren Sammy said after day two that his team needed a 'bollocking' after dropping six catches over the first two days of the Test. The hosts practised work in the cordon before play. And yet Justin Greaves still couldn't hang onto a chance gifted by Travis Head on 21, denying Alzarri Joseph a wicket and continuing the pain for the Windies. AS PLUMB AS IT GETS The Kensington Oval pitch had been playing tricks since day one, and balls had started to keep low. Sensing that a ball would have his name on it, Head sought to attack, and did successfully, getting to 62. It was a sensible call, because that ball duly arrived, with Shamar Joseph shooting one through that trapped the left-hander stone cold in front as he lost his balance. Joseph didn't need to appeal, with Head walking off before the finger was raised. HOLDING COURT Third umpire Adrian Holdstock had been in Sammy's sights at the end of day two following a string of contentious calls that went the way of the tourists. Well there was finally some good news for the Windies on an UltraEdge front when Beau Webster departed on review with a spike showing he had nicked one down the leg side on 63. HIT THE ROOF Alex Carey played a classic punchy wicketkeeper's innings at No.7, blasting his way to 50 from just 40 balls including two sixes. The second six brought up his half-century as he danced down the wicket and launched Justin Greaves over deep mid-off and onto the roof of the Cricket West Indies hospitality building.
