Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has named a 37-man squad for the upcoming Rugby Championship Tests against New Zealand in South Africa.
The Boks will tackle their arch-rivals at Ellis Park on 31 August and Cape Town Stadium on 7 September.
The world champions have been boosted by the return of a few heavyweights who were sidelined by injuries of late.
Three World Cup winners - Steven Kitshoff (prop), Jaden Hendrikse (scrumhalf) and Canan Moodie (utility back) - are back for the first time this year, while Erasmus also recalled Jasper Wiese (No 8), Andre Esterhuizen (centre) - both World Cup winners last year - and Nicolaas Janse van Rensburg (lock).
The Bok squad has been increased from 33 players to 37 and the players will assemble in Johannesburg on Thursday.
