Doctors have cleared the star Ba striker, Josaia Bukalidi to play in the Courts IDC.

Team officials have confirmed that Bukalidi has been training with the Men in black but the confirmation came yesterday that the deadly striker is fit.

However, Ba coaching staff will use Bukalidi as an impact player and he may come in as a substitute mainly in the second half.

Bukalidi is one of the highly rated strikers in Fiji and his inclusion will surely add depth in the Ba lineup which has lost some senior players this season.

Meanwhile, top mid-fielder Shalen Lal was earlier ruled out of the Courts IDC due to an ankle injury.

Ba travel to Suva today and will open their Courts IDC campaign against Rewa tomorrow at 8pm.
