Beauden Barrett will play from the bench as All Blacks coach Scott Robertson made a handful of changes to their lineup for the clash with the Springboks in Cape Town.
The All Blacks are without Ethan Blackadder (hamstring) and Caleb Clarke (back) due to injuries, as Robertson made four changes to the All Blacks starting lineup.
Cortez Ratima gains his second Test start at halfback, rotating in for TJ Perenara, who is also among the substitutes.
Wings Mark Tele’a and Sevu Reece form a new look back three with fullback Will Jordan.
There is one change to the starting forward pack with Wallace Sititi set to play his second Test at blindside flanker in place of Ethan Blackadder, whose tight hamstring saw him unavailable for selection.
