Ben-Jason Dixon is the only change to the DHL Stormers starting XV to face Zebre in Parma on Saturday, with fellow Springbok Warrick Gelant named on the bench.
The Stormers were edged by the Ospreys in Wales last week in their opening match of the fourth Vodacom URC season, and will be eager to bounce back at the Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi, before concluding their tour in Edinburgh.
Synonymous with DHL Western Province and Stormers colours, the 36-year-old Duvenage is in line to make his URC debut in the blue and white stripes after over five seasons with Italian outfit Benetton. “This has been a good week for us and we are all excited to see what this team can do against an in-form Zebre Parma side,” he said.
