Dry to make landmark appearance
Ryan Kankowski was initially earmarked to be drafted into the 12-man squad for Round Six of the World Sevens Series, and although the former Springbok No.8 shrugged off a stomach ailment, he unfortunately hurt his ankle during training on Thursday, which has now ruled him out of action for the weekend.
Dry has scored 70 tries for the Blitzboks since making his debut in the 2009/10 season in Adelaide, Australia.
The Springbok Sevens face Scotland in the opening match at 19.30 (SA time) on Saturday, which will be followed by the Brazilian clash at 23.06 and then the final pool game against Argentina at 03.16 on Sunday morning.
Springbok Sevens: Chris Dry, Dylan Sage, Tim Agaba, Albertus Smith, Bryan Habana, Kyle Brown (captain), Branco du Preez, Rosko Specman, Justin Geduld, Cecil Afrika, Seabelo Senatla, Ruhan Nel.
