Aaron Mauger has announced his first Leicester Tigers team selection ahead of Sunday's Aviva Premiership fixture away to Wasps.Head coach Mauger, in charge following the departure of director of rugby Richard Cockerill this week, makes one change in the backline and one in the forwards from the team that started against Saracens on New Year’s Day.With Manu Tuilagi ruled out for the rest of the season by a knee injury, Tom Brady starts on the wing as Peter Betham reverts to centre alongside Jack Roberts.Flanker Will Evans comes in to start in the back row, with Brendon O’Connor moving to No8 this week.Matt Smith will be looking to add to his 191 appearances for the club as he returns to the matchday squad for the first time since suffering an ankle injury in the Anglo-Welsh Cup win at Bath in November.“Our guys are excited by the challenge of going to Wasps this week,” said Mauger. “It has been an emotional week but the focus has been good, the intensity has been good in training and we have to make sure we are up for it against a good Wasps side.”15 Freddie Burns14 Adam Thompstone 13 Peter Betham12 Jack Roberts11 Tom Brady10 Owen Williams Tom Youngs (c)4 Ed Slater5 Mike Fitzgerald6 Mike Williams7 Will Evans8 Brendon O’Connor16 George McGuigan17 Greg Bateman 18 Pat Cilliers19 Graham Kitchener20 Lachlan McCaffrey21 Sam Harrison22 George Worth 23 Matt Smith15 Kurtley Beale, 14 Christian Wade, 13 Elliot Daly, 12 Kyle Eastmond , 11 Josh Bassett, 10 Jimmy Gopperth, 9 Dan Robson; 1 Matt Mullan (c), 2 Tommy Taylor, 3 Marty Moore, 4 Matt Symons, 5 Kearnan Myall, 6 Thomas Young, 7 Guy Thompson , 8 Nathan Hughes.16 Ashley Johnson, 17 Simon McIntyre, 18 Phil Swainston, 19 James Gaskell, 20 James Haskell, 21 Joe Simpson, 22 Danny Cipriani, 23 Rob Miller
