TEICHMANN FIT FOR WALES

SPRINGBOK skipper Gary Teichmann will be fit to play against Wales in the inaugural match at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium on Saturday. Teichmann, who holds the record at 32 for the most caps as Bok captain, passed a tough fitness test after strained a previously torn knee ligament in the first Test against Italy. He missed the second Test and uncapped flanker Corne Krige stood in as skipper.
