England's Underhill to miss autumn internationals
England and Bath flanker Sam Underhill is out for months with a ruptured biceps that requires surgery.
Flanker Sam Underhill will miss the England autumn internationals due to a ruptured biceps sustained during Bath's opening Premier League game. The 30-year-old suffered the injury in the 48th minute of the match against Harlequins, requiring immediate medical attention. Bath's head of rugby, Johann van Graan, immediately assessed the severity of the injury upon Underhill coming off the pitch.
Underhill is expected to undergo surgery later in the week, leading to his absence from the game until December or January. This will result in a significant absence from both the domestic season and England's internationals against Australia, Japan, and New Zealand in November.
