The Springboks take on Portugal in a one-off Test in Bloemfontein on Saturday evening (kick-off 5pm), to close out their three match Incoming Series, which also featured two games against Ireland.
A team made up of largely fringe players and newcomers was picked for the game against Portugal and they will be looking to impress against the tier two nation ahead of the Rugby Championship next month, with a squad set to be named for the competition next week.
A number of players will have a point to prove in the match and will be looking to impress the Bok management team. Here are five of them:
Lukhanyo AmDue to his recent injury woes, Lukhanyo Am has seen his place in the Bok system take a hit. He is still considered a key member of the squad, and unless injured will be picked, however he used to be a nailed-on starter when fit and that is not the case anymore.
With Am missing in action, it has given rise to Jesse Kriel, who has gone from a useful squad player into one of the Boks most influential midfield members, along with Damian de Allende.
