Danny Care Eyes 99th Cap in Six Nations Showdown Against Scotland

The veteran scrum-half's unique approach to nutrition and recovery underscores his preparation for what could be his final Calcutta Cup appearance.

Danny Care, at 37, is set to earn his 99th England cap in the upcoming Six Nations clash against Scotland at Murrayfield, potentially marking his final appearance in the Calcutta Cup.
Care credits his longevity and performance to an unconventional approach to nutrition, favoring 'burgers, cakes, cookies, and saunas' over strict dietary regimes.
Despite his casual approach to nutrition, Care emphasizes the importance of recovery, utilizing facilities like saunas and ice baths, and acknowledges the role of mental preparation.
Care's experience and attitude are valued by England's coach Steve Borthwick, especially ahead of challenging matches like the one against Scotland, who have been tough opponents in recent encounters.
Looking ahead, Care is aware of the possibility of earning his 100th cap for England, a milestone he views with a mix of anticipation and focus on immediate team needs.
