Kenya Cup Log leaders Kabras Sugar RFC will be out to underline their dominance when they host Kenyatta University Blak Blad RFC in the Kenya Cup semi-final set for Saturday, April 25, 2026, at the ASK Kakamega Showground.
The sugar millers head into the clash sitting pretty at the top of the standings with 52 points, a campaign that has once again stamped their authority as the team to beat in Kenyan rugby. Kabras have combined power, structure, and depth throughout the season, qualities that have kept them firmly on course for a fifth consecutive Kenya Cup title.
Eric Cantona starts at fullback, with Edward Mwaura, Eugene Sifuna and Ephraim Oduor forming the front raw. Skipper George Nyambua anchors the pack alongside the industrious Collins Indeche and Jeanson Misoga, while playmaker Jone Kubu will be key in controlling the tempo of the game at flyhalf.
In midfield, the pairing of Walter Okoth and Derrick Ashiundu offers both creativity and defensive solidity while Mathias and Jackson Siketi wilk man the wings.
On the bench, Kabras boast depth with the likes of Teddy Akala, Emmanuel Otieno, and Patrick Lumumba ready to make an impact if called upon.
Despite Kabras’ impressive run, Blak Blad will not be pushovers. The university side has shown resilience throughout the season and will be eager to upset the odds and book a historic place in the final.
With a place in the Kenya Cup final at stake, all eyes will be on Kakamega as Kabras look to extend their dominance, while Blak Blad aim to script one of the biggest upsets of the season.
