An Orlando Pirates defender has named captain of Bafana Bafana for the upcoming international friendlies.
Bafana Bafana are set to play against Tanzania and Mozambique in Polokwane and Tshwane respectively and head coach Hugo Broos has given the responsibility of leading the team to Buccaneers defender Nkosinathi Sibisi.

Sibisi has been a key member of the Bafana squad during Broos' tenure and is arguably the most experienced campaigner in the squad right now, having been part of the Africa Cup of Nations team that claimed the bronze medal in Ivory Coast.
Sibisi's presence will be important for some of the younger players who have been brought into the team by Broos. The likes of Mbekezeli Mbokazi, Khulumane Ndamane and Samukelo Kabini will have an opportunity to learn a thing or two from the former Golden Arrows defender.
Bafana are currently in Polokwane for the friendly international against Tanzania this Friday and will head back to Gauteng to take on Mozambique four days later.
