Late changes for Boks as Cheslin Kolbe, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu to start against All Blacks in Cape Town
The Springboks have been rocked by late changes to their team for the second Test against the Al Blacks on Saturday.
Wingsman Cheslin Kolbe and flyhalf Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu have been named in the starting lineup for the upcoming All Blacks match in Cape Town, with Manie Libbok stepping in as the backup flyhalf on the replacements bench. Kolbe is expected to replace Kurt-Lee Arendse after recovering from a recent injury, while Handre Pollard was ruled out due to a calf strain.
Following Pollard's withdrawal, Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who had previously returned from an injury during a game against Argentina, has been called up to start in place of Kolbe. Libbok, who was previously left out of the initial match-23, will assume the role of cover flyhalf along with scrumhalf Morne van den Berg. The match will feature a new referee, as Australia's Angus Gardner will be officiating instead of the originally planned World Rugby referee, who was reassigned to cover Georgia's match due to illness.
The game will take place at the DHL Stadium, kicking off at 17h10 and will be broadcast live on SuperSport.
