All Black hooker Dane Coles is set to make his 2021 Super Rugby Aotearoa debut this weekend after being named in the Hurricanes starting line-up for tonight’s clash with the Highlanders in Dunedin.

Coles, who has missed the opening four rounds of the competition because of a calf strain, is one of three changes in the starting 15.

Experienced lock Scott Scrafton returns from an ankle injury to start in the second row in place of James Blackwell while Wes Goosen will be back on the right wing in place of Julian Savea.

Orbyn Leger remains at first-five.

The Hurricanes are yet to notch a win in this year's campaign.

The Hurricanes will face the Highlanders at 6.05 tonight. In the Super Rugby Australia, the Brumbies will take on Western Force at 8.45 tonight.
