(Reuters) - England centre Manu Tuilagi has been ruled out of Saturday's Six Nations match against Scotland due to a groin injury sustained during their shock defeat by France over the weekend, coach Eddie Jones said on Tuesday.

Tuilagi limped off early in the 24-17 loss in Paris when he tweaked his groin and scans confirmed the Leicester player had a low grade strain that will keep him out of the Calcutta Cup clash at Murrayfield.
