Wales make late replacement v Boks as Anscombe drops out of squad

CAPE TOWN : Wales have made a late change to their match day 23 for the series decider against South Africa in Cape Town as last weekend’s match-winner Gareth Anscombe has been replaced on the bench.

Flyhalf Anscombe, who kicked the winning points in the tourists’ 13-12 victory in Bloemfontein that left the series tied at 1-1, has a rib injury, officials confirmed.

He will be replaced on the bench by Rhys Patchell as Wales seek a first ever series win in South Africa. Dan Biggar, who was nursing a shoulder injury this week but has been declared fit to play, is the starting flyhalf.

The match will kick-off at 17h05 local time (1505 GMT).
