DURBAN (Reuters) - Beauden Barrett returned for his first game in more than three weeks to help keep the Wellington Hurricanes well on course for Super Rugby’s post-season playoffs as they beat the Sharks 30-17 away at King's Park on Saturday.

Barrett was rested for the Hurricane’s last game a fortnight ago, when they were upset at home by the Jaguares, but World Rugby’s Player of the Year emphasised the importance of his contribution as he lead the team back to second place in the Super Rugby points table, kicking 15 points.
