All Blacks fly half Dan Carter has been cleared to play in next week's third Test against France in New Plymouth.

Coach Steve Hansen said his backline general was ready to play again and he should have a full squad to pick from for the third Test, including captain Kieran Read and lock Sam Whitelock.

Meanwhile, France number eight Louis Picamoles and pivot Frederic Michalak will miss the third Test after they were injured.

All Blacks humiliated France 30-0 last Saturday. 
 
They meet again this Saturday at 7.35pm.
