Habana returns for South Africa

South Africa winger Bryan Habana has been named in the starting XV for his side's Pool D clash against Namibia on Thursday.

Habana has recovered from the knee injury which saw him miss the Springboks' 49-3 victory over Fiji in Wellington on Saturday.

The winger starred in South Africa's 2007 World Cup triumph and was named IRB Player of the Year for his efforts.

A win for the Champions would consolidate their spot at the top of the Pool and virtually guarantee them a spot in the quarter finals.
