The All Blacks are back in action against the Bulls. Follow live updates below.

They are hoping to make it three out of three on their "Greatest Rivalry" tour with a win over the Bulls in Pretoria.

Dave Rennie's men will back up four days after beating the Sharks 54-0 in Durban.

They won their first tour match against the Stormers in Cape Town 38-21.

Today's match is the last chance some squad members will have to impress before the first Test in Johannesburg next week.
