The return of Jasper Wiese and a brand-new lock combination are among nine changes to the Springbok side set to do battle against the All Blacks at Ellis Park on Saturday.
Calf injuries will prevent lock Patrick Tuipulotu and outside back Stephen Perofeta from travelling with the All Blacks Rugby Championship squad to South Africa.
Taking their opportunities and thriving in wet conditions allowed the All Blacks a confidence-boosting win ahead of their next Rugby Championship assignment – two Tests in South Africa.
Springbok stars Canan Moodie and Steven Kitshoff are back after Rassie Erasmus named an updated Rugby Championship squad for the upcoming double-header against New Zealand.
All Blacks coach Scott Robertson believes Rassie Erasmus was "smart" rather than "brave" by making 10 changes for the Springboks' clash with the Wallabies.
The Springboks were delighted with their impressive start to the Rugby Championship after bagging two bonus-point wins in Australia, but Cheslin Kolbe stressed the importance of "keeping their feet on the ground".
