The Cheetahs have welcomed the return of wing Daniel Kasende in one of three changes to their starting lineup for the Challenge Cup clash with the Sharks in Bloemfontein.
Cheetahs coach Hawies Fourie has kept the changes to a minimum for the second-round clash, which kicks off at 3pm on Sunday.

The only change to the backline sees Kasende, who missed the opening-round victory over Zebre in Parma due to passport issues, return on the right wing in place of Siba Xamlashe.
The remaining two changes both come in the front row, as Hencus van Wyk and Cameron Dawson replace Laurence Victor and Schalk Ferreira.
