Dwayne Peel has made a record 76 Wales scrum-half apperances

Wales World Cup reject Dwayne Peel starts for Sale in their opening Aviva Premiership clash at Worcester on Saturday.

Coach Warren Gatland deemed scrum-half Peel unready for the rigours of the tournament in New Zealand.

That judgement rankled with Sale director of rugby Steve Diamond while Peel also declared himself fully fit ahead of the new season.

Peel partners Sale's Welsh fly-half Nick Macleod at Sixways.
