Springbok Handre Pollard will start at No 10 against the All Blacks in the second Test against Cape Town on Saturday.
Pieter-Steph du Toit will lead the Springboks in his 100th Test, as the Boks still wait for regular skipper Siya Kolisi to pass a fitness test ahead of the second match of Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry against the All Blacks at the DHL Stadium in Cape Town on Saturday.
Du Toit, who led the Boks in their 33-16 defeat to the All Blacks last Saturday at Ellis Park, holds on to the captaincy armband, with Kolisi bracketed alongside Paul de Villiers in the 23-player match-day squad named by coach Rassie Erasmus on Monday.
Erasmus has also recalled the experience of double World Cup-winning flyhalf Handre Pollard at No 10, with Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu dropping to the bench after a disappointing performance in Johannesburg.
Manie Libbok drops out of the squad completely.
