Kenya Cup champions Kabras Sugar put up an improved second half performance to thrash Homeboyz 37-11 in the Enterprise Cup semifinal played at the Kakamega Showgrounds on Saturday.
Kabras will now face off against KCB who eliminated Impala 20-18 in the other semifinal played in Nairobi.
Victory saw Kabras Sugar reach their second consecutive Enterprise Cup final.
Ironically, Homeboyz and Kabras were to face-off in the semi-final in 2020 edition of the cup competition but the match was called off due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
In the match, South African fly half Ntabeni Dukisa drilled in three penalties as Kabras narrowly led 9-3 at the break. Brian Ayimba scored Homeboy’s penalty.
