(Reuters) - Argentina will be without their first-choice halfback pairing of Tomas Cubelli and Nicolas Sanchez for the rest of the test series against Scotland, the Argentina Rugby Union said on Tuesday.

Cubelli tore a thigh muscle in the warm-up before Saturday’s 26-18 win over Scotland in the first test in San Salvador de Jujuy while Sanchez suffered a calf tear in the opening 20 minutes and had to be replaced.
