Rugby: England to wear red in World Cup opener

England will don alternative red shirts rather than wear their traditional white kit for the Rugby World Cup opener against Fiji at Twickenham on September 19 after losing a coin toss, organisers announced.

With no home and away designation for sides, the process of allocation of kit and changing room for each fixture was determined by a coin toss by team managers earlier this year.
Fiji, who play in white, were designated Team A for the Pool A match.

England will revert to white for their remaining pool matches against Australia, Wales and Uruguay.
