All Blacks halfback TJ Perenara

All Blacks halfback TJ Perenara will make his return to test rugby tomorrow night after being named in the 23 member team that will face the Wallabies in the second Bledisloe test tomorrow night.

The 29-year-old hasn't played for the All Blacks since the 38-0 win over Argentina in Newcastle last November.

He missed this year's Super Rugby season to take up a short-term deal with Japan's NTT Red Hurricanes in the Japans Top League.

Perenara will be playing his 70th test for the All Blacks as a late injury replacement for Finlay Christie.

The All Blacks will face the Wallabies at 7.05pm tomorrow.
