The flanker Chris Robshaw will continue as England rugby captain in this year's Six Nations.
Robshaw has been chosen by coach Stuart Lancaster who named him as skipper in his first game in charge against Scotland in February 2012.
He has led England in 19 games, winning 12 of them.
Lancaster says Robshaw had proved himself to be an outstanding leader for his club Harlequins and his country.
England start their Six Nations campaign in France and also head to Scotland before a Twickenham double header against Ireland and Wales, and a trip to Italy.
