Steve Tandy has freshened up his Wales team for today’s Nations Championship clash with South Africa in Durban.

Tandy has made six changes from the side beaten 35-21 by Argentina last weekend, with Teddy Williams, Alex Mann, Dan Edwards, Ben Thomas, Max Llewellyn and Louis Rees-Zammit coming in.

Captain Dewi Lake is fit to start having been a doubt with a groin injury this week but Ben Carter misses out with an ankle problem suffered in training on Wednesday.

Tandy has broken up the established centre pairing of Eddie James and Joe Hawkins, with Thomas and Llewellyn coming in.

“I think it’s a bit of freshness in the centres,” said the Wales head coach. “I thought the combination with Joe and Eddie has been excellent for us but we feel Max and Ben deserve an opportunity.

“Max I thought did really well for us in the autumn, unfortunately he got injured, and then Ben has responded really well since being left out from the England game.

“It’s exciting for us. Moving things around, freshening up, there’s lots of travel. And obviously it’s the back end of the season so it’s a good opportunity for us to try a few different combinations.”

There are four new faces for the Springboks today – here’s what you need to know:

South Africa and Wales collide on the final weekend of the first phase of rugby’s new Nations Championship as the Springboks bid to complete a clean sweep in July. England, emphatically, and Scotland – rather more squeakily – have been seen off by the world champions already – can Wales spring a shock?

Kick off is at 4.40pm BST.
