Zim players based in S.A round up

Kaizer Chiefs duo of Khama Billiat and Willard Katsande were dropped out of the squad that won 3-2 against Highlands Park over the weekend.

Billiat picked up a knock a week ago which ruled him out of the tie while Katsande’s unavailability was not explained. The 33-year-old midfielder has missed the other match in the previous round.

Defender Teenage Hadebe started in the first XI as one of the three centre-backs but was subbed off at the half time as coach Ernst Middendorp made tactical changes.

On the other hand, Highlands introduced Tendai Ndoro in the 76th minute while goalkeeper Tapuwa Kapini was an unused substitute.

Elsewhere, Kudakwashe Mahachi started for Orlando Pirates against Golden Arrows as the winger continue to enjoy some game time following an unfruitful spell which came after his arrival at the club in August.

Mahachi played for ninety minutes before leaving the pitch in the injury time of the game.

Arrows trio of Knox Mutiza, Danny Phiri and Divine Lunga was in the first team for the encounter.

Mutizwa, however, only played for seventy-two minutes while Phiri picked a yellow card during the game.
