Scotland v South Africa: Bakkies Botha returns for Springboks Bakkies Botha will make his first South Africa appearance for two years when the Springboks take on Scotland at Murrayfield on Sunday. Prop Gurthro Steenkamp and hooker Adriaan Strauss also start, having been on the bench for Saturday's 24-15 win over Wales in Cardiff. Coach Heyneke Meyer will make a late decision on whether Willem Alberts or Siya Kolis will play openside flanker. Willie le Roux takes over at full-back, with Pat Lambie shifting to fly-half. Wing JP Pietersen wins his 50th cap for South Africa. Meyer's side beat Scotland during the latter's summer tour and Springboks head coach expects a difficult match in Edinburgh. "I've only been in the job now for almost two years and every single game against Scotland has been very, very tough and could've gone either way," he told BBC Scotland. Scotland, their breakdown is probably up there with the best. They're really, really clinical Heyneke Meyer South Africa coach I've got a lot of respect for them as well. I truly believe it's going to be tough. We've had a bad record here in the past. We need to focus on our game. We need to take our game further. In Test match, you must be prepared for everything. That's the mindset we'll be going with on Sunday. They can play any type of rugby and they're definitely a tough team to play against. Scotsman Richie Gray, not to be confused with the current Scotland player of the same name, is part of South Africa's coaching staff and Meyer has valued his contribution. "Scotland, their breakdown is probably up there with the best," added Meyer. They're really, really clinical at the breakdown. They play in a lot of these conditions where sometimes it's wet. Their body position's always great and they can keep the ball for a lot of phases. I've known Richie from way, way back and I've talked to him a lot about breakdown. He's been awesome with the team, especially at the breakdown. We're very fortunate to have him involved. We're getting much quicker ball now. We're not there yet, but there's a huge, huge difference in our breakdown.
