Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber has made 13 changes to his match-day squad as the Boks are going to clash against the Wallabies in a Rugby Championship match at the CBUS Super Stadium in Gold Coast on Sunday.
Veteran Duane Vermeulen makes his first appearance for the Boks since the final of the 2019 Rugby World Cup against England.
Nienaber made seven changes in the starting line-up and six on the bench to the squad, which beat Argentina 29-10 in Gqeberha last month.
The starting line-up:
15 Willie le Roux, 14 Sbu Nkosi, 13 Lukhanyo AM, 12 Damian de Allende, 11 Makazole Mapimpi, 10 Handre Pollard, 9 Faf du Plessis, 8 Duane Vermeulen, 7 Franco Mostert, 6 Siya Kolisi, 5 Lood de Jager, 4 Eben Etzebeth, 3 Frans Malherbe, 2 Bongi Mbonambi, 1 Steven Kitshoff
