FORMER SuperSport United striker Dino Ndlovu has made a return to the Bafana Bafana squad for the back-to-back 2018 World Cup qualifiers against Angola next month, with the first match set to be played in Benguela on November 13.

Ndlovu last played for the national team when Gordon Igesund was coach but has now returned after making an impressive start to life in Cyprus, where he's scored seven goals in eight matches for Anorthosis Famagusta.

"He has played [eight] games and he has scored seven goals. He deserves to be given a chance as well. Let's see what he can do," Mashaba said yesterday after naming his 25-man squad.

Mpumalanga Black Aces full-back Lehlohonolo Nonyane has been selected to fill the problem left-back slot.
