England captain Mike Tindall aims to "enjoy" World Cup Argentina clash

England’s Tindall raring to go

Mike Tindall has said that he wants his England teammates to "enjoy" their World Cup campaign as they gear up for a battle against Argentina on Saturday.

The 32-year-old will captain the side in the absence of Lewis Moody, who continues to overcome a knee injury.

"It is definitely an honour but I'm not going to allow myself to think about that," he told Sky Sports News.

"We've got a job to do. We've trained really well all week and I just want the boys to go out there and enjoy their World Cup experience.

"We want it to be as enjoyable as possible and that means performing."

England face their South American opponents on Saturday at 9.30am.
