Afrika to make a comeback

IRB Sevens Player of the Year Cecil Afrika has been included in the 12 member South Africa team for the Australia 7s.

Afrika has recovered fully from his broken jaw suffered during pre-season and will be in action at Skilled Park, the new home of Australian Sevens.

South Africa faces matches against hosts Australia, USA and Japan.

Last season South Africa ended the Series as the in-form team when they claimed back-to-back Cups in Scotland and England, which enabled them to secure second spot on the Series standings behind New Zealand.

South Africa will take on USA tomorrow at 5.47pm in its first match.
