All Blacks centre Anton Lienert-Brown has been scratched from the Rugby Championship test against Argentina tonight.

Lienert-Brown's withdrawal means Rieko Ioane will be promoted from the reserves bench into the starting XV. Ioane will start in the No 13 jersey, alongside second five-eighth David Havili.

Quinn Tupaea replaces Ioane on the bench.

The All Blacks will play Argentina at 7.05 tonight while Australia will play South Africa at 10.05pm.
