South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus has named a 26-man Springbok squad for the one-off Test against Argentina in Buenos Aires on 8 August, as the team prepares for the Rugby Championship rivalry fixture. Multiple reports say several key players return from injury. Siya Kolisi is included after being previously unavailable, along with Eben Etzebeth and Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who are also listed as fit again. The selection comes ahead of South Africa’s travel to Argentina for the match. The named group is set for the Test as the Springboks aim to field a full-strength side following recent injury setbacks. While the reports focus on the returnees and the size of the squad, they agree on the main elements of the announcement: Erasmus is responsible for the selection, the squad has 26 players, and the Test is scheduled for 8 August in Buenos Aires. Details of the full squad beyond the cited return players are not provided in the excerpts.
