'Eight of South Africa's team - Siya Kolisi, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Duane Vermeulen, Bongi Mbonambi, Eben Etzebeth, Frans Malherbe, Damian de Allende and Cheslin Kolbe - started the 32-12 win over England in the 2019 World Cup final.Nienaber hopes that experience will come in useful again at the Stade de France, although he expects a stiff challenge from Steve Borthwick's side who come into the match as the only undefeated team still in the tournament.
