In a major change from last week, Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus will name his team for the second Test against the All Blacks in Wellington on Monday morning (SA time).
Having named his side for the first Test in Auckland on the Thursday prior to kick-off, SA Rugby’s Sunday media release confirmed a change in thinking ahead of the second clash.
The side will be named from 09:00 (SA time).

It’s unclear why the change in thinking, but the Springboks could do with a change in result having gone down 24-17 at Eden Park.
