Lam brings in Bok lock for England clash
Springbok and Clemont lock Flip van der Merwe has been included in the squad along with big names like Victor Vito and Charles Piutau.
The team will be coached by Pat Lam
"I'd like to thank Ireland head coach Joe Schmidt for making Bundee [Aki] available to us as he'll be a big asset for the Barbarians," said Bristol head coach Lam.
"The big thing about Bundee is that he's an unbelievable competitor. A lot of the Pacific Island boys have that X-factor but he loves putting his head in the dark places and thriving in turnover and contact work.
"He's a huge leader on the field and he has a great understanding and passion for the way I like the team to play. England is a game we're going to have to work hard in and he epitomises what we need to do. We need the courage to play and move the ball and also to know when we have to tighten things up, and he'll be at the centre of that."
