Rory Darge starts for Scotland
Rory Darge returns to the starting XV on Saturday as Scotland look to level their three-match series with Argentina (ko 8.10pm BST).

Nine Glasgow Warriors are in the squad for Salta including seven that played in last weekend's defeat in Jujuy.

Tight-head Zander Fagerson wins his 49th cap while Rory Darge is promoted from the replacements to start at blindside flanker. Matt Fagerson joins elder brother Zander in the starting pack.

Behind the scrum, Sam Johnson is the only Glasgow starter in the back division, as the centre retains the number 12 jersey.

Five further Warriors are named on the replacements bench, including the return of Scott Cummings to Test rugby after the second-row impressed against Chile for Scotland A. He's joined by George Turner, Ali Price, Ross Thompson and Jamie Bhatti.
