All Blacks captain Richie McCaw is back.

He's been named on the bench for the Crusaders for Sunday's Super Rugby clash with the Waratahs in Sydney.

It'll be McCaw's first match back since last year's World Cup final, after a series of operations on his foot problem.

Luke Romano and Tom Donnelly will partner each other in the second row, with Sam Whitelock dropping to the bench.

Ben Franks shifts to loosehead with his brother Owen starting at tighthead and Wyatt Crockett moving to the reserves.
