England have selected Nathan Hughes for the first time after including the Wasps back row in a provisional Elite Player Squad for this months pre-season training camp.Leicester hooker and club captain Tom Youngs, who won 31 caps under the previous regime, returns after being previously overlooked by head coach Eddie Jones, while Gloucester wing Johnny May is back from knee surgery.High-profile omissions from the 45 are centre Luther Burrell, fly-half Danny Cipriani and wing Chris Ashton.Fijian-born Hughes qualified for England on residency grounds in June and has been one of the Aviva Premierships most consistent performers since being plucked from obscurity by Wasps in 2013.The 25-year-old, who picked up a rugby ball for the first time eight years ago, is a powerful carrier and his appearance in the squad is an exciting development, even if there are misgivings over his work-rate and defence.Jones views him as a blindside flanker rather than No. 8, the position Billy Vunipola has filled with distinction.Youngs was a big-name omission from Jones maiden squad named in January having been first choice throughout last autumns World Cup, but he is one of four hookers among the 45.The jet-heeled May sustained a serious knee injury in December and has been unavailable since.Cipriani failed to impress during a pre-summer tour training camp in May, Burrell was replaced after only 28 minutes of the first Test against Australia in June due to defensive failings and Ashton continues to find himself out of favour.Teimana Harrison endured a similar fate to Burrell -- he was pulled half an hour into the third Test after failing to offer enough physicality -- but the Northampton back row remains.Two members of the England Under-20 squad that were crowned junior world champions are present in Leicester flanker Will Evans and Harlequins centre Joe Marchant.This camp sets the scene for November. Its important to catch-up with the players prior to the start of the season and continue to put our plans in place, Jones said.Well use this time to reset and review each players goals so theyre clear on what is expected of them between now and when we meet up again in October.It also gives us an opportunity to meet and assess some new players and ensure they are familiar with the England set-up.The long-term strategy for England is to develop a side who can be the most dominant team in world rugby, so weve chosen a number of new faces to attend this camp on the form they have shown recently or the potential we see in them.There will always be opportunities for anyone playing consistently well in the Premiership at the start of the season to force their way into the EPS - the door is always open.Naturally players not included in this pre-season camp will be disappointed, but consistent high-level performances can change this.England squad for preseason training camp:Forwards: Josh Beaumont, Dan Cole, Luke Cowan-Dickie, Jack Clifford, Will Evans, Charlie Ewels, Jamie George, Ellis Genge, Teimana Harrison, Dylan Hartley, James Haskell, Paul Hill, Nathan Hughes, Maro Itoje, George Kruis, Joe Launchbury, Courtney Lawes, Joe Marler, Matt Mullan, Chris Robshaw, Kyle Sinckler, Billy Vunipola, Mako Vunipola, Mike Williams, Tom YoungsBacks: Mike Brown, Danny Care, Elliott Daly, Owen Farrell, George Ford, Alex Goode, Mike Haley, Jonathan Joseph, Joe Marchant, Jonny May, Jack Nowell, Dan Robson, Semesa Rokoduguni, Joe Simpson, Slade, Ben Teo, Manu Tuilagi, Anthony Watson, Marland Yarde, Ben YoungsCarlo Pinsoglio Juventus Jersey .
