Blak Bladave named their squad for this weekend’s Kenya Cup clash against KCB Rugby set for Kenyatta University Grounds on Saturday at 4:00 p.m.
The starting XV sees Elvis Otete wearing the fullback jersey, providing a safe pair of hands under the high ball and a counter-attacking threat. On the wings, DJ Wechuli and Meja Mulongo, the vice-captain, bring pace and experience, while Bryson Ogamba and Claude Nyamiro form a strong midfield partnership.
At fly-half, Enock Oduor directs the backline, linking play to Benjamin Rugar at scrum-half. The pack is anchored by Obat Kuke, the captain, leading the forwards from number eight.
