Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus named an exciting side featuring a good blend of youth and experience for their clash against Argentina.
Players such as Aphelele Fassi, Ben-Jason Dixon, Ruan Nortje and captain Salmaan Moerat all have less than 10 caps for the Boks and will be eager to take their chance to shine.
“Many of these combinations have played together this season and they all know how tough Argentina can make things for you on the day if you do not pitch up sharp and battle ready. Erasmus is also well aware of the challenge that Los Pumas will pose, especially at home after they thrashed Australia by a record 67-27 in their previous match, while they have to win to keep their chances of claiming the Rugby Championship alive.
