Kenya's rugby legend Collins Injera has been named in the National 7's squad for the upcoming Hamilton and Sydney 7s legs of the 2019/2020 HSBC World Sevens Series.

Published on January 15, 2020, Injera returns to the national team for the third and fourth rounds of the HSBC Sevens World Series, having missed last season's World Sevens Series and the first two legs of this season's series in Dubai and Cape Town.

With 271 tries at the World Sevens series, Injera is second all-time, behind England's Dan Norton who has 346 tries to his name.

Joining Injera in the travelling party is KCB speedster Geoffrey Okwach, who is set to make his Sevens series debut.

The duo, alongside Herman Humwa, are the three changes made from the team that represented Kenya in Dubai and Cape Town.

Shujaa, captained by Andrew Amonde, has been grouped in Pool B alongside South Africa, England and Japan for the Hamilton Sevens.

Shujaa sits 11th on the Log on 15 points, having gained 4 points in Dubai and 11 in Cape Town.
