I had the same issue/question awhile back...
After a bit of digging, I installed mksh which "links/hides" itself as ksh:
Code:
$ which ksh
/usr/bin/ksh
$ ls -lrt /usr/bin/ksh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 LP-VGERSHKO-W7+vg_local LP-VGERSHKO-W7+None 8 Apr 19 2018 /usr/bin/ksh -> mksh.exe

MKSH(1) BSD General Commands Manual MKSH(1)
NAME
mksh, sh - MirBSD Korn shell
SYNOPSIS
mksh [-+abCefhiklmnprUuvXx] [-T [!]tty | -] [-+o option] [-c string | -s
| file [argument ...]]
builtin-name [argument ...]
DESCRIPTION
mksh is a command interpreter intended for both interactive and shell
script use. Its command language is a superset of the sh(C) shell lan
guage and largely compatible to the original Korn shell. At times, this
manual page may give scripting advice; while it sometimes does take por
table shell scripting or various standards into account all information
is first and foremost presented with mksh in mind and should be taken as
such.
I don't quite remember if mksh was a separate Cygwin package or not...
