Hoskins Sotutu will make his All Blacks debut off the bench while Sevu Reece has been omitted from the All Blacks team for the first Bledisloe Cup on Sunday.

Sotutu had a impressive Super Rugby Aotearoa campaign for the Blues and has been rewarded with a first test match call up.

All Blacks coach Ian Foster has named Richie Mo'unga at first five while Beauden Barrett will start at full back.

Foster has also named Jordie Barrett, Rieko Ioane, Jack Goodhue, George Bridge, Aaron Smith, Ardie Savea, Sam Cane, Shannon Frizell, Sam Whitelock, Patrick Tuipulotu, Ofa Tu'ungafasi, Codie Taylor and Joe Moody in the starting line-up.

The All Blacks take on the Wallabies at 3pm Sunday in the first Bledisloe Cup match.
