Ninth placed Nondescripts are up against tenth placed Blak Blad in the Kenya Cup early kick off at the ASK Jamhuri Park. The 17 time Kenya Cup champions will be out to pull off the double against the varsity side, having beaten Blad 29-11 in the corresponding fixture at the Kenyatta University on Saturday 19 November 2016.
Despite their lowly positions on the log, both sides have been immensely competitive in their previous outings and will without a doubt deliver an entertaining game of rugby, something that could probably appease the game’s purists and romanticists.
Nondies will look to the guile and experience of their philosophical skipper Fielden Sinei who will be tasked with pulling the strings in the backline, setting up plays around Matthieu Bastareud’s doppelganger Benjamin Marshall and Eric Ombachi in midfield. Old hand Ben Nyambu returns to the back row, partnering Ced Odera and Clive Akello as the Rangers look to emerge victorios on their home turf.
