New Zealand will field the most experienced XV the sport has ever seen. Steve Hansen’s side will feature 1,013 Test caps and another 316 on the bench, per BBC. Argentina, by stark contrast, have seven World Cup debutants in their starting XV.
Despite boasting a more experienced side, Hansen refuses to look past his opposition.
“We have the utmost respect for Argentina — who we know a lot more about now because of their involvement in the Rugby Championship — but it also means they know a lot more about us.
“We will need to be at our very best to get our tournament away to a good start.”
