Ox Nche is enjoying his cake while bossing it for the Springboks as he is set to make his return.

“My focus is doing my best and making a good impression in this Test.

“I am excited for the World Cup, but it is all about getting back to full confidence and to where I left off, and building on that.” The Bok tight five is substantially more experienced than their Welsh counterparts, but Nche warns that the men in red are crafty campaigners.“They want to lure you into the maul the way they want you to maul, and scrum the way they want you to scrum. They put a lot of doubt into most packs.

“We must stick together as a unit ... We have a good system in place, and we have a plan as well to counter-act that. “We have played against most of them in the and as much as they might not be as experienced as people say they are, they have gathered a lot of caps for their clubs.”
