Notes:

The team shows four changes from the one that defeated Uruguay in the opening match of the Rugby World Cup.
Corne Krige returns to captain the side after missing the first match with a hamstring strain.

Loosehead prop Christo Bezuidenhout gets his first test start after coming on off the bench against the All Blacks in August.
Jorrie Muller returns to partner De Wet Barry at centre after Jaque Fourie was ruled out through injury.

Fullback Jaco van der Westhuyzen returns to the starting lineup for the first time since the opening Tri-Nations game against Australia in Cape Town in July.

Three players who started against Uruguay are amongst the reserves, prop Lawrence Sephaka, flanker Danie Rossouw and fullback Werner Greeff.
