Kulabu ready for the Kisii challenge
Stanbic Mwamba travel to Kisii for their first ever Kenya Cup match against Kisii RFC at Gusii Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Black Shirts will be without their former skipper Salaton Muturi who is out with a hamstring injury and Brad Owako (broken teeth). Lavin Asego will also miss the Kisii trip as he recovers from ankle injury with Marvin Odiembo ruled out for the rest of the season with a dislocated shoulder.
Kevin Wambua has called up James Yuko to start as the tighthead prop and Chris Asira will also slot in the second row for the unavailable Paul Wahome. Alex Aturo starts at blind wing as impressive Daniel Taabu switches to open wing.
On the bench, Ken Okwado is promoted from the reserves alongside debutante Joel Inzuga “Zing”. Veteran Humphrey Kayange is back on the bench alongside Horace Alila and Martin Oyugi.
