The dismal performance by Kenyan teams at the ongoing Commonwealth Games in Australia continued on Wednesday after various teams representing the country lost in their fields.
Lawn bowls, shooting, table tennis, squash and badminton players lost in their respective games, compounding Kenya’s problems at the games, where they have performed dismally.
The country has already lost in the men’s 5,000 meters, women’s 1,500m and women’s 10,000m, races they won in the 2014 edition.
At the games, Caleb Mwangangi Ndiku, Faith Chepgng’etich and Joyce Chepkirui won these events.
Cephas Kimwaki lost 21-14 to England’s Robert Paxton in the fifth round of the men’s singles lawn bowls competition at the Broadbeach Bowls Club on Wednesday, although Christopher Saina put up a spirited performance.
The country has continued to lose ground in the current games, with Ugandans taking over many of the races that were considered ‘Kenyan’, including the 5,000 meters, women’s 1,500m and women’s 10,000m.
