England’s best player at the Rugby World Cup hadn’t started a match for his country until a month before the tournament. Ben Earl was far from assured of being in the squad for France before the World Cup warmup games took place in August. Earl was voted as the best player in the English league in 2022.
England’s Ben Earl celebrates winning after the Rugby World Cup quarterfinal match between England and Fiji at the Stade de Marseille in Marseille, France, Sunday, Oct. 15, 2023.

“If you named a World XV at this time, he would be close to getting in it,” England defense coach Kevin Sinfield said this week of Earl. Like getting within three matches of the record number of appearances as a replacement before gaining a first start for England. Earl will no doubt be keeping a close eye on that because cricket was his first love. He was a powerful left-handed batter who could also bowl a bit, and struck up a close friendship with current England opener Zak Crawley — from their time together at Tonbridge School — that remains to this day.
When he runs out against the Springboks, Earl will be making his 24th appearance for England. It is easily his biggest.And Earl believes there are plenty of top players in England’s team going under the radar.
