Defending champions Kabras Sugar are through to their 10th straight Kenya Cup final.

The win saw Kabras maintain their three-season long unbeaten run and will now start preparations to host the Kenya Cup for the sixth straight year in Kakamega on April 12.
Sketta gave the hosts a 5-0 lead after finishing off a well-executed offload from Ntabeni Dukisa.
