The former Buccaneers player also started against Argentina.
Ireland full back Hugo Keenan finally looks set to make his debut for the Lions on the Australian tour, this Saturday.
Illness forced Keenan to withdraw from the team to play in the win against Queensland Reds yesterday but he's been selected to start against Warratahs in Sydney.
Tadhg Beirne will captain the team in the second row alongside fellow Irishman James Ryan.
Former Buccaneers player Finlay Bealham will also start the game on Saturday, having already featured for the side in their opening game against Argentina.
Josh van der Flier and Mack Hansen are the other Ireland internationals included while head coach Andy Farrell has called up Owen Farrell to replace the injured Elliott Daly.
