# Rugby: Gael Fickou will captain an inexperienced France squad for their tour of New Zealand. The reigning Six Nations champions will be missing many senior players for the three matches against New Zealand on 5, 12 and 19 July. Fickou skippered the side for the friendly victory over England last weekend, and, with 94 caps, the Racing 92 centre is the most experienced active French player. France have not beaten the All Blacks in New Zealand since 2009. The squad features 28 players with fewer than 10 caps.
