Nyakane to face the Sharks

Jason Jaftha will referee the Absa Currie Cup match in Bloemfontein on Friday night.

That is when the Free State Cheetahs will host the Sharks.

Keegan Daniel is now fit and back in the Sharks starting 15.

However, Jacques Botes will captain the Sharks in Bloemfontein.

The Sharks also have Sizo Maseko back from injury.

Tim Whitehead remains unavailable, while Butch James has been picked on the bench this week.

Trevor Nyakane will start for the Cheetahs.

Nyakane was dropped from the Springbok squad for disciplinary reasons over the past weekend.

Boom Prinsloo will lead the home side.

Also in their starting line-up are the likes of Raymond Rhule, Johann Sadie, Sarel Pretorius, Elgar Watts and Robert Ebersohn.

Kickoff is at 19h10 on Friday night.
