(Reuters) - England will miss the leadership of prop Mako Vunipola, who has been ruled out of the side's remaining Six Nations Championship campaign, forwards coach Steve Borthwick has said.

England, who lead the table with 10 points, lost Vunipola to an ankle ligament injury in their 44-8 victory over France. The 28-year-old had played a pivotal role in England's stunning win over holders Ireland with a team-high 11 carries and 27 tackles.
