Buffaloes head coach Max Adaka has named an unchanged squad set to compete in the Rugby Super Series round two matches against Rhinos at Nakuru Athletics on Saturday 3:00 pm.
In the backline, the trio of James Olela, Bede Enonda, and Griffin Chao will once again take on the roles of fullback and wings, joined by centres Hillary Salano and Alvin Mutachi.

Dan Angwech and Eric Cantona have retained the scrum-half and fly-half positions, respectively.
In the forward pack, the back row consists of Biden Hayo at number eight, with Collins Indeche and Jacktone Omondi as flankers.
Omondi recently returned from a high-performance stint in South Africa alongside Olela.
Clinton Litali and Thomas Simiyu will continue their partnership in the second row, while Edward Mwaura, Gibson Perez, and Hillary Mwanjilwa will be responsible for front-row duties.
