Duo wait to face former colleagues

Figure image
Mark Van Gisbergen and Chris Bishay have been called into the London Wasps team for Sunday's match against Leicester Tigers at Adams Park, while former Tigers duo James Buckland and Michael Holford are among the replacements.

Danny Cipriani and Dominic Waldouck, who both started last week, take a turn on the bench.

The team includes England internationals Tom Voyce, James Haskell and Tom Palmer, and will be led by flanker John Hart.

Director of rugby Ian McGeechan said: "Facing Leicester Tigers is always a big game, and Sunday will be a massive challenge for us. We had a good hour in the middle of the game last week, when I was very pleased with our all-round game, but we are now looking for a big game over 80 minutes. That's the only way to put yourself in a position to beat sides like Leicester."

Tickets for Sunday's game are still available from the Wasps ticket hotline on 0870 414 1515 or online at http://www.wasps.co.uk/
