Curwin Bosch has recovered from injury and will start for the Sharks in their Currie Cup semi-final against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein on Saturday.

Bosch has missed the last two games after sustaining a minor injury in the round-robin meeting between these two sides.

However, the 22-year-old is back to full fitness and comes straight into the starting lineup in place of Boeta Chamberlain.

The rest of the team remains unchanged from the one that narrowly beat the Vodacom Bulls in Pretoria last weekend.

Sharks – 15 Aphelele Fassi, 14 Kobus van Wyk, 13 Jeremy Ward (c-c), 12 Andre Esterhuizen, 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Curwin Bosch, 9 Sanele Nohamba, 8 Tera Mtembu (c-c), 7 Jacques Vermeulen, 6 Phepsi Buthelezi, 5 Hyron Andrews, 4 Ruben van Heerden, 3 Coenie Oosthuizen, 2 Kerron van Vuuren, 1 Thomas du Toit.
Subs: 16 Dylan Richardson, 17 Mzamo Majola, 18 John-Hubert Meyer, 19 Gideon Koegelenberg, 20 Andisa Ntsila, 21 Cameron Wright, 22 Rhyno Smith, 23 JP Pietersen.
