Captain Isaah Yeo returns, forcing Lindsay Smith back out of the run-on XIII, in the only change from last week's winning team.

We’ve had to work exceptionally hard in challenging conditions to win the opening two Tests, and while we’d like to reward the extended squad for their outstanding efforts on tour, we just feel that the players who have got the job done deserve to play in Leeds,” Walters said.

“The playing group has had a few days off to freshen up and now it’s back to work.

"We’ve trained well today and we’ve still got the Captain’s Run to get ourselves where we need to be for what is a very important Test match for both sides.
