England's interim coach Stuart Lancaster was forced into making the late change after Strettle failed a fitness test on a sternum injury.
Sharples' only previous Test appearance came as a second-half replacement in England's World Cup warm-up win against Wales last August.
Lancaster said: "Charlie has trained with us throughout the tournament so he has spent a lot of time with the other guys.
"He almost made the World Cup squad and this is a great opportunity for him.
"It's unfortunate for David but he has been fitness-tested by the medics this morning and is not 100 per cent so it is a straight swap and Charlie is ready to go."
