Eight players from England's squad for this World Cup lost the final to New Zealand in 2017. England beat New Zealander two months before the World cup in Belfast. 19 of the squad have never played at a World Cups before. The Red Roses are under pressure to win the tournament. France and the Black Ferns are also tough sides. England captain Sarah Hunter says tournament experience could be a big factor going into the 2014 World Championship.
England play at a fast tempo, string passes together accurately and have a decent kicking game. Their real point of difference in world rugby lies at the set-piece with their lineout, maul and scrummaging ability. The forward pack is attuned to one another and their scrum is outstanding. They are a well-oiled machine who will take some stopping. They're the red-hot favourites for the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.
