In announcing a 33-strong squad, Saint-AndrГ©В also handed a return to the international scene to powerful Toulon centre Mathieu Bastareaud, who has been out of favour since the win over England in March 2010.Д®lsewhere, Saint-AndrГ©В largely stuck with the group that he used in the November Tests, with the only uncapped player being 22-year-old Perpignan lock Romain Taofifeuna. The French won all three games under his captaincy against Australia,Argentina and Samoa вЂ“ and that was enough to convince Saint-AndrГ©В to stick with PapГ© despite the return of Dusautoir.Дusautoir has captained France 31 times in 54 appearances, most notably atthe 2011 World Cup in New Zealand where France reached the final and he was named international player of the year.

The Stade Francais forward, capped 45 times for his country, was handed the skipper's role for France's November Test matches after Dusautoir was rested to fully recover from injuries.
