Jannie out of Wales Test

Cape Town - Springbok prop Jannie du Plessis has not recovered from a hamstring injury and will miss their final tour game against Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.

Du Plessis sustained the injury against England at Twickenham on November 15 and missed this past weekend's game against Italy in Padova.

He was expected to be back for the Wales Test, but needs more time on the sidelines.

Coenie Oosthuizen is likely to start at No 3 again this weekend, with Julian Redelinghuys to get another shot off the bench.

Saturday's clash at Millennium Stadium kicks off at (16:30 SA time).
