    Simba Head Coach Ian Snook expects Zimbabwe, coached by Peter de Villiers, to pose a different kind of challenge when the two sides face off in Rugby Africa Gold Cup action at the RFUEA Ground on Saturday June 30.

    Speaking at a news conference to unveil his match day 23 on Thursday morning, Snook said, “Zimbabwe bring a different challenge in that they are a fast, speedy side on the outside and are big and strong upfront.”

    “They’ll pose a  slightly different challenge to what we had in Morocco. We are anticipating a fairly strong game from them.”

    Kenya overcame Morocco 28-24 in Casablanca last time out.

    Commenting on the return of Isaac Adimo and Darwin Mukidza’s positional switch, Snook said, “Isaac wasn’t available last week because of exams…he’s back and starts at 10.”

    “Obviously we thought Darwin had a really good game at first five…we think he can play well at second five as Leo Seje is out injured.”
