Kriel wings it for Junior Boks

Dan Kriel will start on the wing in the only change to the Junior Boks' starting line-up for the Junior World Championship final against England on Friday.

Kriel, who has featured at both centre and fullback during the tournament, will take the place of Lloyd Greeff on the right wing.

On the bench, Jean-Luc du Preez makes a return, having missed the last two matches after suffering a head-knock against the Baby Blacks during the pool stages.

Meanwhile, England have named an unchanged team from the one that breezed passed Ireland into Friday's final. Lock Maro Itoje will continue to skipper the side, while tour captain Callum Braley will play off the bench.

Friday's final pits the previous two winners, and the tournament's only two unbeaten teams, against each other in what should be an enthralling affair.
