Damian de Allende has been passed fit to play and shifts back to his regular inside centre position, with Kriel coming into the starting lineup at outside centre.

There were also four changes on the replacements bench, which will again feature the more traditional split of five forwards and three backs, with SA A captain Thomas du Toit (prop), Marco van Staden (flanker), Jaden Hendrikse (scrumhalf) and fit-again Canan Moodie being drafted in.

This follows the unavailability of Cheslin Kolbe (wing), Andre Esterhuizen (centre), Cobus Reinach (scrumhalf), Jasper Wiese (No eight) and Vincent Koch (prop), who all returned to their clubs.
