Harlequins flanker Chris Robshaw has been reappointed England captain for the Six Nations, which starts next month.

"Chris stepped into the role 12 months ago and has grown as a leader on and off the field," said England boss Stuart Lancaster.

Robshaw added: "There are other leaders in the squad that Stuart could have turned to so I am really honoured."

England's campaign begins on 2 February against Scotland at Twickenham.
