PARIS (Reuters) -Antoine Dupont will start for France in Sunday's quarter-final clash against defending champions South Africa after recovering from surgery on a broken cheekbone in a massive boost for the hosts.
The mercurial scrumhalf missed Les Bleus's final Pool A game against Italy and while he was not needed in a 60-7 demolition of the Azzurri, the captain's presence will offer a confidence boost and add danger to Fabien Galthie's side.
