Alex Matthews to captain England in final World Cup pool game against Australia
Breach, who took her try-scoring tally for England to 52 with a hat-trick against Samoa last time out, hits her milestone by retaining her wing shirt.
The head coach, John Mitchell, said of Breach: “To reach 50 caps for your country is testament to the hard work and dedication put in over a number of years, not only by the individual but by those who support them daily.
“Jess should be incredibly proud of her milestone and we’re looking forward to her taking to the field on Saturday.”
Aitchison has been named among the replacements after missing the opening two games with an ankle injury. If the Sale Sharks player makes an appearance every single player in the Red Roses 32-strong squad would have had tournament minutes before the knockout stage begins.
Abby Dow comes back in on the wing and is one try away from hitting 50 for England, while Ellie Kildunne rounds off the back three.
Morwenna Talling starts at blindside flanker with Sadia Kabeya back at openside flanker and Maddie Feauanti starts from the bench. In the second row the lock pairing is Rosie Galligan and Abbie Ward.
Mitchell added: “We want to build on our opening matches of the tournament and finish the pool stage with a good performance against Australia.”
