Cheslin Kolbe has returned to the South Africa team for Saturday's World Cup Final clash with England.
The speedy Toulouse back regains the No14 shirt from Sbu Nkosi - who drops out of contention altogether - having been left out of the semi-final victory over Wales due to concerns regarding an ankle injury.
Springboks head coach Rassie Erasmus has also stuck with his preferred six-two split between forwards and backs on the bench, with another physical encounter in store this weekend.
Siya Kolisi will lead South Africa for the 20th time in Yokohama on his 50th cap as he looks to become the third South Africa captain after Francois Pienaar (1995) and John Smit (2007) to lift the Webb Ellis Cup.

"Chessie [Kolbe] is fully fit and ready to go. It's tough on Sbu to drop out of the 23 altogether but he has made vital contributions to our campaign," Erasmus said.
"But we have been developing some momentum through the tournament, which has come from consistency and although we know there are things we can do better this is a fit, well-practiced set of combinations."
