The Toulon-bound winger sustained a knock to his leg while training on last week Friday and this could rule him out for the clash against Australia.

The Boks forwards coach, Deon Davids, confirmed that there is doubt over Kolbe’s availability.

“At this stage all our players, except Cheslin Kolbe, are ready and available.

“All of the previously injured players such as Duane Vermeulen and Rynhardt Elstadt, are back on the field training and available for selection.

“Kolbe took a hit on the leg towards the end of our training session on Friday and was sent away by the medical staff for treatment and assessment.

“They are still busy with his assessment, so we’ll make a decision later today or early tomorrow, in terms of his availability depending on the outcome of the medical assessment. “It’s nothing too serious and hopefully he will be ready to play as soon as possible.”

The Boks name their team on Wednesday and Sunday Test kicks off at 12:05.
