Follow live as the All Blacks name their team to face the Wallabies in Perth.
Backrower Ardie Savea will captain the All Blacks in their remaining five matches in the Rugby Championship.
Regular captain Sam Cane is not available because of injury and his stand-in Sam Whitelock did not travel with the team to Australia because his wife is expecting a baby.
Halfback Aaron Smith, who recently captained the All Blacks for the first time, and first five-eighth Richie Mo'unga also did not travel for the same reason, leaving Savea to take on the leadership role for the first time.
