Lions bring in cubs for Crusaders clash
Dayimani, who has only three Super Rugby caps under his belt, will pack down with the two flanks Albertus 'Kwagga' Smith and Cyle Brink.
Another youngster, Madosh Tambwe, will start at wing in the place of the injured Aphiwe Dyantyi.
While, Dillon Smit dons the No.9 jumper in his first start for Super Rugby this season.
Smit made his return to the playing field in Argentina against the Jaguares after a long lay-off due to a fractured ankle in August 2017.
Corné Fourie makes his way onto the bench as replacement hooker while Marnus Schoeman will also warm the bench again.
