Another big milestone for Captain Kolisi

By Online Editors
Thursday 30 Sep 2021

IN THE SPOTLIGHT: Springboks captain Siyamthanda Kolisi will join a very elite list this Saturday.

The clash between the Springboks and All Blacks on Saturday will see Kolisi playing in his 30th Test as the Springboks captain.

The 30-year-old will surpass 1995 World Cup-winning skipper Francois Pienaar to become the fourth most-capped Springbok captain.

Only John Smit (83), Jean de Villiers (37) and Gary Teichmann (36) precede the flank, who led the Springboks to the 2019 World Cup, 2019 Rugby Championship title and a Lions Series.
