Brian O'Driscoll will captain the British and Irish Lions in their second tour match against the Golden Lions in Johannesburg on Wednesday.
Ireland's Grand Slam skipper is one of 12 changes made by head coach Ian McGeechan to the side following Saturday's 37-25 victory over the Royal XV.
O'Driscoll last captained the Lions on the ill-fated night in 2005 when he suffered a dislocated shoulder only a minute into the first Test against New Zealand.
"I don't see Wednesday's game as being about putting wrongs right, it's just a very exciting opportunity," O'Driscoll told a news conference.
'I'm delighted to lead the team on Wednesday, it will be a huge honour again. It's clear we didn't fire on all cylinders in the opening game, but we managed to dig deep and win against very organised opponents and there's something in that.'
Lions manager Gerald Davies said: 'Everyone is also delighted that Brian O'Driscoll, the Irish Grand Slam skipper, will lead the team.'
David Wallace remains in the back row but switches to openside while Jamie Roberts and winger Tommy Bowe have also been retained.
Full-back Rob Kearney, winger Ugo Monye, flanker Tom Croft and lock Nathan Hines will all make their Lions debuts at Ellis Park.
Number eight Jamie Heaslip (below), scrum-half Mike Phillips, lock Alun-Wyn Jones, prop Phil Vickery and hooker Lee Mears all start after coming off the bench in Rustenberg at the weekend.
McGeechan said: 'The starting XV is very different to the one that played against the Royal XV on Saturday.
'There are only three players backing up from that match but six of the replacements have been promoted to Wednesday's starting XV for the Golden Lions match.
'This is in line with our intention that all players will play a full match in the first three matches on tour.
'The team has a very solid core with Brian O'Driscoll, Stephen Jones, David Wallace, Phil Vickery and Gethin Jenkins who are all very experienced internationals and previous Lions tourists.'
'David Wallace now has the opportunity to play at openside flanker following his selection at number eight against the Royal XV.
'The team has trained well. We have worked on several key areas following the first match, which has given us a base from which to keep developing our game.'
