England fly-half Fin Smith will undergo a training session on Wednesday, the Guardian reported, as he attempts to prove he is fit to wear the No 10 shirt for Sunday's autumn opener against Australia. Smith suffered a calf problem during Northampton's derby loss to Leicester last month, and England head coach Steve Borthwick has been waiting to learn whether the Northampton playmaker has recovered. The Guardian reported there is cautious optimism that Smith will come through the session without issue. Meanwhile, Smith's Northampton half-back partner Alex Mitchell has been ruled out for England's whole autumn campaign after suffering another hamstring injury, according to the Guardian.
