WHEN KAIZER CHIEFS LOST KHAMA BILLIAT TO INJURY

As The South African reported last month, the 32-year-old Zimbabwean suffered a knee injury during the 0-0 draw with AmaZulu at Soccer City on 3 September.

Since the day of his absence, coach Arthur Zwane shuffled his formation and players’ regular playing positions in search of his winning team. The result has been seven games unbeaten.

One of the changes will see Billiat compete with a teammate you did not expect him to battle with for the Chiefs shirt.

BILLIAT TO COMPETE WITH KEAGAN DOLLY

Coach Zwane, who was known as ‘10111’ during his days as a winger, has moved Dolly from the wing to play as a number 10 in the past three games.

The number 10 position is the same role that made Billiat the superstar he was at Mamelodi Sundowns.

The former Ajax Cape Town suffered the injury playing as a center forward while Caleb was yet to arrive and while Ashley Du Preez was injured.

With the former Sundowns star now back from injury, he will be available to play in his favourite number 10 position. But he has to dislodge Dolly from it.

As far as other roles in the frontline, Kgaogelo Sekgota has made the left role his own, Du Preez is yet to grab his opportunity on the right, while Caleb is the lone striker.

This will leave Dolly and Biliat competing for the number 10 role.
