England start Vardy, Sturridge against Slovakia

With Rooney amongst the replacements, centre-back Gary Cahill will captain the Three Lions at Saint-Etienne's Stade Geoffroy Guichard.

Having come off the bench to score England’s goals in their 2-1 win over Wales, Vardy and Sturridge come in for Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling.

Jordan Henderson takes Dele Alli's place in midfield while Jack Wilshire came in for Rooney alongside Eric Dier.

England manager Hodgson also opted to change both full-backs.
