International record
Test caps and points · Wikipedia infobox, 8 June 2026The story so far
Cheslin Kolbe's international record stands at 55 caps and 198 points, a return that frames him as a scorer rather than a specialist confined to a single job. He is listed as a wing, a fullback and a fly-half. That range places him in the back three while allowing a shift into the playmaking channel.
The route to those caps began at Western Province and moved through the Stormers, then France with Stade Toulousain and RC Toulonnais, before Tokyo Suntory Sungoliath in Japan. His honours include a Forbes listing and an SA Rugby player award. South Africa is his national team, and Stormers appears as the club entry in his profile. His listed category sits in the backline.
