Sharks, Cheetahs each name two teams

Cape Town - The Sharks and Cheetahs have named two teams for their respective warm-up matches in Umlazi on Friday.

Tera Mtembu will lead the Sharks in the first match (17:00) which will be 60 minutes, while regular captain Pat Lambie will lead the Sharks in the main game which will be broadcast on television.

Cheetahs coach Franco Smith also divided his squad into two groups, with the 'white group' to play the 60-minute warm-up.

The 'orange group' will play in the televised match which kicks off at 18:30.

Due to this match being televised on SuperSport, SANZAAR and broadcast rulings dictate that it has to be an 80 minutes warm-up match.

The Cheetahs' two groups will act as replacements for each other during the respective matches.
