Geoff Parling returns to the England side for Saturday's first test against New Zealand at Eden Park.
Parling is named in the starting XV alongside Leicester Tigers teammate Manu Tuilagi after missing the Six Nations through injury. Parling wins his 20th England cap while Tuilagi will make his 23rd England appearance.
Ben Youngs is among the replacements and there is a start for new signing Freddie Burns, who moves to Welford Road after the summer tour.
Seven players that started against Italy in the RBS 6 Nations are included in the XV – captain Chris Robshaw, Mike Brown, Danny Care, Joe Launchbury, Jonny May, Ben Morgan and David Wilson.
There’s a recall for James Haskell and the uncapped Joe Gray and Chris Pennell are named on the bench.
England Head Coach Stuart Lancaster said: “We’ve had a good week’s training in Auckland and have prepared well and are ready for the massive challenge ahead. It doesn’t get much bigger than playing New Zealand at Eden Park where they haven’t lost in 20 years but those selected know what they have to do.
“Billy Twelvetrees is recovering well from his ankle injury and should be available for the 2nd Test and it’s now a good opportunity for Kyle Eastmond to build on what he achieved in Argentina last summer.
“It’s great to welcome back Geoff Parling and James Haskell who have a lot of experience and equally it’s a fantastic opportunity for Joe Gray and Chris Pennell, who have really impressed in training, should they come off the bench for their first caps.
“We’ve had lots of messages of support and I am sure the players will be giving their all at the start of this three Test series.”
