Bok team to face Pumas announced

The Springbok team to face Argentina on Saturday was announced a press conference on Wednesday morning.

Springbok coach Jake White recalled utility back Conrad Jantjes as replacement for Breyton Paulse, who is unavailable due to club commitments in France.

There is also a return to the side for Bolla Conradie, who will wear the number-nine jersey.

John Smit will lead the Springboks in his 49th Test match. He needs one more cap to become the eighth Springbok to play in 50 Tests. — Sapa
