Most runs made
The top carries were as follows:-
1 Burger'2 Ben Smith3 Vermeulen4 Cordero5 Milner-Skudder6 Kieran Read7 Savea8 Michael Leitch9 Damian de Allende10 Tuculet
The above breakdown entails -
SA Forwards - 1 and 3 SA Backline Players - 9
New Zealand Forwards - 6New Zealand Backline players - 2, 5 and 7
Argentina - Backline players 4 and 10
Japan - Forwards - 8
