Argentina coach Daniel Hourcade has named returning scrumhalf Martín Landajo as captain for Saturday's Test against the All Blacks in Buenos Aires.
Landajo is back in the starting XV at the expense of Tomás Cubelli, and takes over the captaincy despite the inclusion of long-standing captain Agustín Creevy who is still in the run-on side at hooker.
Two other changes see left wing Ramiro Moyano replace Lucas González Amorosino and Guido Petti starts at No 4 lock.
