Do you have a record of previous England XV - Barbarians results? - and who has scored most points in a match in this fixture? Dave Milton, England

The first match was staged in 1990 to mark the centenary of the Barbarian Club. In all, the sides had met 14 times prior to Sunday's game and the series was all square at seven wins apiece until England thrashed the invitational side. Twickenham has hosted each game.

Results up to 2015:

1990 England XV 18-16

2001 Barbarians 43-29

2002 England XV 53-29

2003 Barbarians 49-36

2004 Barbarians 32-12

2005 Barbarians 52-39

2006 England XV 46-19

2008 England XV 17-14

2011 Barbarians 38-32

2012 England XV 57-26

Prior to Danny Cipriani's record haul off 33 on Sunday, the individual record for most points in a match in this series was set by the former All Black Bruce Reihana. He collected 22 points playing for the Barbarians in 2005. Dave Walder held the corresponding record for England with 21 in the 2002 match but Cipriani's 10 conversions, one penalty and two tries have now surpassed that.
