Bok prop duo to start for Sharks
Updated | By Nondumiso Zakwe
There are only two changes to speak of from the side that lost to the Lions last weekend.
They come in the front row, where Springbok props Jannie du Plessis and Beast Mtawarira are back in the starting XV.
Meanwhile Dale Chadwick is the unlucky customer who has dropped out of the team this week.
Lock Marco Wentzel retains the captaincy.
With top four sides in the South African conference only separated by four points, the Sharks are looking for a win this weekend.
It will also give them a confidence boost before they go on tour in two weeks.
Meanwhile the Bulls were on fire last weekend, and Sharks wing Sbura Sithole believes their back-line are a real threat.
The Sharks host the Bulls at Growthpoint Kings Park on Saturday.
KickOff is at 5.05 pm.
