CAPE TOWN : South Africa captain Siya Kolisi said the world champions won't let criticism of the team's style of play alter their game plan going into Saturday's series decider against the British & Irish Lions.

Kolisi said the criticism would not distract his team from their task, while assistant coach Mzwandile Stick said the Boks would take no lessons from the Lions on how to play. "We wouldn’t go look at another team that is winning and complain about how they are playing. You can’t do that, they are winning."

"We are not going to decide what they must do and they are not going to tell us how to play the game."
