Siya Kolisi and Ox Nché provide positive injury updates for Springboks

South African rugby captain Siya Kolisi and loosehead prop Ox Nché have provided positive updates ahead of the Springboks' upcoming Test match against New Zealand at Ellis Park.

Kolisi is recovering from a hamstring injury sustained during a recent victory over Argentina, while Nché has been managing a knee injury. Assistant coach Felix Jones reported that both players successfully participated in Tuesday’s training session without issues. While both players must complete the remainder of the training week before their availability is officially confirmed, the team reports they are “tracking pretty good.”

Additionally, Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus is expected to announce his full squad tomorrow. The team faces no other major injury concerns following the recovery progress of Franco Mostert.
