England captain Jason Robinson became coach Andy Robinson's latest injury worry ahead of the Six Nations when he sustained a hamstring injury in a club match on Friday.

Full-back Robinson, who captained the national side during the November internationals, limped off in the 70th minute of Sale's 24-23 English Cup loss to Bath.

Robinson is already missing several players including his original choice of captain Jonny Wilkinson, centres Will Greenwood, Mike Tindall and Stuart Abbott and loose forwards Martin Corry and Richard Hill.

England open their Six Nations campaign against Wales in Cardiff on February 5.
