DANNY CARE declared his international career over shortly after raising his bat for his England century.
The Harlequins scrumhalf has called time on his Test days with 101 caps on the board and one Six Nations Grand Slam (celebrating in 2016 with team-mate Mike Brown top), three Six Nations titles and a World Cup bronze medal (second, left). Care, 37, decided the time is right following discussions with his wife Jodie after being part of England's rejuvenation under head coach Steve Borthwick in the last month.
Care won his 100th cap against Ireland, off the bench in the 23-22 win at Twickenham and won his last in the heartbreaking 33-31 defeat by France in Lyon 10 days ago.
