The Sharks and the Bulls play the first South African derby of the 2020 Super Rugby season. Here’s what you need to know.

Lukhanyo Am will lead the Sharks in their opening 2020 Super Rugby clash against the Bulls at Kings Park on Friday evening. Kick off is at 19:10.

The team isn’t too dissimilar to the one that played against the Stormers in the Superhero Sunday preseason warm-up recently.

There will be a few more Super Rugby debutants on Friday, though with the three forwards, loosehead prop Ox Nche, flank James Venter and eighthman Sikumbuzo Notshe making their first starts since moving to Durban last year.
