The RFU have begun promoting the game which is one of three to be played between the worlds top two womens sides this winter.

It will be England's second appearance at Twickenham this year having played there against Scotland in the Six Nations.

England and New Zealand have of course met at Twickenham before - in 2009 where England scored a 10-3 victory in only their second ever win over the Black Ferns.

New Zealand had their revenge in the 2010 Women's Rugby World Cup though with victory in the final just across the road at the Twickenham Stoop.

The women's game at Twickenham will follow the match between Australia and the Barbarians and it will kick off at 4.45pm.

The NZRU and the RFUW earlier this summer annnounced that England and New Zealand were to play each other nine times over the coming three years.
