South Africa vs. New Zealand - Boks look to double down on dominance in Baltimore

South Africa head into Saturday’s Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry (RGR) Test against New Zealand in Baltimore with a 2-1 series lead. A Springboks win at M&T Bank Stadium would underscore the gap they’re trying to close ahead of next year’s World Cup and would leave the All Blacks facing a more difficult assessment. South Africa began with a 33-16 win at Ellis Park, but the Wallabies hit back: the sides traded 33-26 and 29-24 victories at DHL Stadium and FNB Stadium. Rassie Erasmus praised New Zealand’s progress, while coach Dave Rennie will want similar resilience when under pressure. Cheslin Kolbe is out after breaking his jaw in the third Test; Damian Willemse returns at fullback. The match is scheduled for Sept. 12 at 5 p.m. EDT, with SuperSport and Sky Sport as rights holders.
