The All Blacks are just one win away from sporting immortality.
After being largely written off after the opening defeat to France, all that stands in the way of them and the Webb Ellis Cup is the Springboks with their bomb squad bench.
Both teams are on three titles, and are vying to stand above the other with a fourth win.
But the game could be overshadowed by World Rugby’s new tournament.
World Rugby has announced a 12-team Nations League from 2026, with promotion and relegation in 2030.
The 2027 tournament will also be expanded to 24 teams.
But less than 12 hours prior to kick off, the Black Caps will be in action in India.
They take on Australia in Dharamshala as they look to move on from last weekend’s loss to India.
