Stuart Hogg of British and Irish Lions evades the tackle of Pieter-Steph du Toit of South Africa during the second Test at Cape Town Stadium. Photo by Ashley Vlotman/SportsfileSouth Africa are still sweating over the fitness of key men Pieter-Steph du Toit and Faf de Klerk ahead of Saturday's third Test decider against the Lions. However, those worries have been offset by confirmation that their outstanding No 8 Duane Vermeulen will train with the squad today. Du Toit damaged his shoulder following a robust tackle from Lions winger Duhan van Merwe, who somehow avoided punishment. The Boks will name their team tomorrow, as they hope to be able to include du Toit, Vermeulen and de Klerk, who was also forced off during his side's win last weekend.
