Richardson returns for Sharks Currie Cup clash
Updated | By Nick Tatham
The Cell C Sharks will welcome back loose forward Dylan
Richardson for their Carling Currie Cup clash with the Toyota Cheetahs at
Hollywoodbets Kings Park on Wednesday.
Richardson returns to the bench for the Sharks following an extended period out of action with a foot injury and will be a welcome sight for the Sharks.
Looking at the starting line up the forward pack remains the same from last week's loss to the Vodacom Bulls, however there are three changes in the backline.
The Sharks fell to their first defeat of the Currie Cup last week and take on the log leading Cheetahs on Wednesday knowing it's going to be a difficult outing.
The backline changes see Eathan Fisher coming into the starting line-up for Murray Koster while Jeremy Ward comes into the side in place of Marnus Potgieter at outside centre.
Jordan Chait shifts from flyhalf to fullback for the clash after he was a last-minute substitute for Tito Bonilla last week against the Bulls.
Bonilla returns to flyhalf after he missed out due to a bout of food poisoning.
Inny Radebe drops out of the squad after an extended period of play along with Murray Koster, but Koster's younger brother Lloyd receives his first call-up to the Sharks senior side.
