PARIS (Reuters) - Flyhalf Francois Trinh-Duc will start France's Six Nations game against Scotland on Sunday after manager Guy Noves made six changes to his team for the trip to Murrayfield on Friday.

Trinh-Duc, who had been recovering from an injury, replaces Julien Plisson after the Stade Francais player's under-par performance in a 19-10 defeat at Wales in the previous game.
