Captain Raphael Chege said they should not be judged with the outcome of their first two matches.

“Basic errors were our main undoing but with time we will learn the ropes. I’m not bothered by the weekend results because we still have many matches left to play. We will definitely recover and start recording wins,” said Chege.
