Kyle Steyn will wear the armband as one of three South Africans in the Glasgow Warriors lineup to face the Vodacom Bulls in the URC final at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.
The SA-born Scotland international starts in an unchanged back three for the Warriors that includes Kiwi flyer Josh McKay and Argentina speedster Sebastian Cancelliere.
Former DHL Stormers centre Huw Jones will partner the powerful Sione Tuipulotu in midfield while Tom Jordan and George Horne link up at halfback.
TEAM: Arendse returns for URC final
Ex-Cheetahs head coach Franco Smith has also named an unchanged Warriors pack, with fellow SA natives Oli Kebble and Henco Venter set to feature off the bench.
Glasgow converted a 7-3 half-time lead against Munster in Limerick into a 17-10 win to book a place in the URC finale, and set up a titanic rematch with the Bulls at Loftus where they had lost earlier in the league stage.
Glasgow Warriors – 15 Josh McKay, 14 Sebastian Cancelliere, 13 Huw Jones, 12 Sione Tuipulotu, 11 Kyle Steyn (c), 10 Tom Jordan, 9 George Horne, 8 Jack Dempsey, 7 Rory Darge, 6 Matt Fagerson, 5 Scott Cummings, 4 Richie Gray, 3 Zander Fagerson, 2 Johnny Matthews, 1 Jamie Bhatti.
Subs: 16 George Turner, 17 Nathan McBeth, 18 Oli Kebble, 19 Max Williamson, 20 Euan Ferrie, 21 Henco Venter, 22 Jamie Dobie, 23 Duncan Weir.
