Odwa Ndungane’s return to the wing in place of the injured JP Pietersen is the only change to the Sharks’ starting line-up for the Currie Cup final.
JP Pietersen’s lack of form in the Super 14 season has cost him a place in the Springbok squad that was named in Somerset West on Wednesday. The Sharks’ World Cup-winning wing failed to score a try in the 2008 series after he finished the 2007 Super 14 season as the leading try scorer.
