South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus has kept faith with the squad which routed New Zealand 43-10 in their last Rugby Championship match for upcoming tests against Argentina in Durban and London that will complete their campaign.

Hooker Bongi Mbonambi has been retained after not travelling to New Zealand due to personal reasons, as has the experienced Faf de Klerk, who is the fourth scrumhalf in the squad and was called to New Zealand as cover.

Lood de Jager (lock), Jean-Luc du Preez (loose forward) and Aphelele Fassi (fullback) have all been ruled out of the fixtures with Argentina through injury.
