On 3rd November 2019, KCB Rugby Team secured a 32-20 win over Kenya Harlequin in a Kenya Cup match at the RFUEA ground. This victory marked their second successive bonus-point win, while Kenya Harlequin remained winless.

According to Quins coach Dominique Habimana, "It was a game of two halves. We did not play well in the first half and that costed us. I am glad that some substitutes had an impact although it was too late."

KCB opened the scoring with Shaban Ahmed profiting from a poor pass by Quins fly half Eden Agero to score a try which he converted. An infringement by the bankers deep in their territory earned Quins a penalty which was calmly struck by Lyle Asiligwa to cut the deficit. KCB then scored their second try which was converted by Isaac Njoroge before the Kenya 15s full back returned to the scoresheet with a penalty.

Meanwhile, in Nakuru, Nakuru RFC fell 15-10 to Homeboyz at Nakuru Athletic Club. The loss marked their second consecutive Kenya Cup League match defeat. In Kakamega, high-flying Menengai Oilers maintained their perfect win record after edging out Western Bulls 27-21.
