Springbok captain Siya Kolisi has been cleared to play, while the experienced Willie le Roux and Handr Pollard are back in the starting line-up for Saturdays massive Rugby Championship showdown with the All Blacks at Cape Town Stadium (5pm start).
Bok coach Rassie Erasmus made seven changes, including two positional switches, on Thursday morning as he again tinkered with the match-23 from last weeks 31-27 victory over New Zealand at Ellis Park.
Kolisi took a blow to the cheek in a tackle from All Black flank Sam Cane, but has recovered sufficiently and participated in training sessions this week to run out in front on Saturday.
Le Roux gets a recall in place of Aphelele Fassi, who had another excellent performance in Johannesburg, while Canan Moodie has been brought in at right wing for the concussed Kurt-Lee Arendse, with Cheslin Kolbe shifting to left wing.
Pollard resumes the flyhalf duties from young pivot Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who has been a revelation in the No 10 jersey this season.
