The draw for the 2007 Higson and Sowerby Cups have been announced.  The 1st XI begin the defence of the title with a tough match against Furness at home.  If they successfully reach the final again then this would mean the 1st team would have 3 home draws to the final which is a good result for the bar takings!!!

On to the second team where they begin their Sowerby Cup run away to Appleby which will provide them an opportunity to to get one over on old Keswick favourite Luke Wimbridge and his merry men.  Unfortunately if the 2nds are successful and reach the final they will have to do it playing away from all on every round.

As the stats suggest he has been a very successful bowler in sri lankan domestic cricket for many years. He has also had four successful seasons in England taking 70 plus wkts on each occasion from around 20 games. He is also a keen coach who has done a lot of work at his previous English clubs and is looking to carry on this work at Keswick which can only be good news for the future of our club.

2ND XI WIN JUNIOR CUP, AGAIN!!!

The 2nd xi successfully retained the junior cup on Sunday by beating Nunwick in the final.  In the end they won comfortably by 40 runs bowling Nunwick out for 210 after posting a challenging 246 off their 40 overs.  The main stays of the Keswick innings were Glen "the cheat!!" Weightman with 50no, Steve "zz" Clark with 47 and a brisk 46 of about 12 balls for Ian "hitter" Dixon. 

All did not go to plan as Nunwick were 50 for 1 going well but with only 18 off the bat too many extras were being conceded.  Adam Collin was the main stay of the innings for Nunwick with a big hitting 64.  But then came the key moment when Paul "the worm" Fleet swooped into a one handed intercept and ran out Collin with virtually put Keswicks name on the cup.

full match report to follow.  

12/9/06

The Second team are through to the final of the Junior Cup after a 2 wkt win over Whitehaven 2nds in the Semi final.  Whitehaven batted first and made 166 all out.  In reply Keswick got there in the end with 7 balls remaining.  The margin may have been more if it wasnt for a few "dubious" LBW decisions, but they do say check the scorebook!!

The final is this Sunday versus Nunwick so lets get support down there and hope this will be the second piece of silverware to come to fitz park this year. 

The clubs end of season presentation night will follow the conclusion of the match.

28/8

Geeeeeeeeeet in!!!!!!!!! The 1st XI won the Higson Cup today by beating Cleator by 16 runs.  As Keith has mentioned in his match report it was "a proud day in the clubs history". Not to dwell on it too much as you can read KTRs, MOTD, report but from 1-11 the players were at their best.  As the batting score shows this may not be the case as we were saved by Imran with a brilliant 87 but the way that the team fought back with exceptional bowling and fielding was awesome. Imran and the team would like to thank all the supporters for their attendance at the match and for their full support. 

Also special mention must go to John Bryson (Snr) as he was so dedicated to the cause that he ventured into the loft for the post match celebrations!!! 

17/8

Keswick's long weekend of the 26th, 27th and 28th of August when the 1st X1 is at home to Vickerstown in the league on the Saturday, entertain Millom in the semi-final of the Thwaites Bitter County Cup final on the Sunday and then travel to the Ernest Valentine Ground, Workington, on the August Bank Holiday Monday, for the rearranged final of the Higson Cup. Phew!
There will be some tired limbs and minds after that little lot but the pain could be eased considerably if the outcome is three victories.

Nor should we forget the 2nd X1's continued interest in the John Scott Memorial Trophy and a tie in the latter stages still beckons against Kendal 2nds, on Sunday, September 3rd.
 

14/8

Both the Senior and U18 League elevens won their finals on Sunday to win their respective competitions.  Both games were rained off with very little time remaining but with both elevens in strong positions the result went down to run rates from the first 10 overs so justice was done.  Two Keswick players featured Chris D'Leny and Darren Collin (U18's).

1/8

The 1st XI will play Cleator in the Higson Cup Final this weekend (Sunday 6th) at Workington starting at 2pm.  Keswick are confident going into the game with the return of Paul and Steven Hindmarch to give Keswick a full strength team.

Team: Imran Khan (c), John Bryson (vc), Mansoor Ahmed (pro), Paul Hindmarch, Steven Hindmarch, Andrew Bryson, Chris D'Leny, Glen Weightman, Stuart Dowson, Joe Gibson and Darren Collin. 12th man: Simon Grisdale.

23/7

LETS ALL HAVE A DISCO!!!!

The 1st XI are through to the semi final of the county cup after beating Northern League team Kendal by 4 wkts.  Kendal were put in on a good Keswick pitch as Keswick felt their best chance of winning was to chase with 2 key bowlers out, Joe Gibson and Stuart Dowson.

Kendal batted well but never took the game away from keswick as they made 244 off the 40 overs.  The crucial part for Keswick was they took wickets when batsman were set and looking to accelerate. 

With needing 6 runs an over from the start Keswick needed a good start and so they did. Boundarys were coming in every over as JB and Darren took to the Kendal attack.  JB was the lynch pin of the Keswick innings with a man of the match 91.  Keswick reached the target with one over to spare which was then followed by the customary D-I-S-C-O!!!!

17/7

Race night is on again this Saturday down at Fitz Park at 8pm. Gordon Thompson has done a great job in getting it together and others have no doubt put in a great deal of effort.  With not wanting to do a Delia Smith on you lets get down and support our club. hope to see you there.

16/7

The 1st XI are through to the Higson Cup final for the second year running after a 10 run victory over Penrith.  Keswick batted first and made and under par 182 all out.  John Bryson and Steve Hindmarch were the heros with 57 and 47 respectively.  Penrith were then cruising at 160 for 3.  But then the tables turned with Keswick taking 6 wkts for 12 runs and the key one of Penith pro Upul Fernando for 63.  All the emotion and exitement can be found in KTRs match report.

15/7

It was a good weekend for both the 1sts and 2nds this week both recoding victories. 

The 1st team beat Wigton away with a 4 wkt win on what proved to be a tough free scoring pitch. Keswick restricted Wigton to 137 for 9 off their 50. Both Imran and Mansoor took 4 wkts, the key one been that of professional Toyana for 4.  In reply the top order got off to a good start with Darren Collin and Imran taking the score to 60 for 1 before Imran was bowled for 35. With only 78 needed Keswick began to stumble losing a further 5 wkts and finally got home with 13.3 overs left with John Bryson holding together with 20no.

The second team made much easier work of Lanercost at home with a 9 wkt win. On what a presume would be another batting paradise on a hot day at fitz park Lanercost batted first and were bowled out for 124 mainly thanks to Jamie D'leny who took 5 wkts.  With only 125 to win it was the seconds game to lose but John Phillips and Neil Swainson took on the responsibility with a match winning opening stand getting 70no and 40 respectively. 

(Full match reports to follow)

11/7

Tuesday evening victory
 
At least the 2nd X1 managed to complete a game on Tuesday evening when they defeated their counterparts from Cleator in the John Scott Memorial Trophy at a warm and sunny Fitz Park. Against a strong Keswick team intent on retaining the trophy they won last summer, Cleator were restricted to 104/8 from their 20 overs.  With Jamie D'Leny ripping out the top order and taking 3/12 from four. Joe Gibson and Dan Gaskell took two wickets each and Keswick cruised to 106/2 with Neil Swainson 42 not out and John Phillips 36.
Keswick are now at home to Wigton 2nds in the next stage of the competition.
 

9/7

The 2nd XI are playing Cleator 2nds in the Junior Cup this week provisionally tues (11/7/06) or thurs if the weather has its way this week. The seconds will be looking to retain their title they won last year.

On to the 1st XI they are now to meet Penrith, who beat Wigton on Sunday, in the Semi final of the Higson cup away to Penrith this Sunday (16/7/06) at 2pm.

Support for both of these fixtures would be well appreciated by the players from both teams!!!!

3/7

The 1st XI came through their second round tie with Egremont in the County cup on sunday to reach the quarter finals of the competition.  Keswick Batted first and amased 354 off 40 overs.  Knocks from John Bryson 86, Darren Collin 60, Chris D'Leny 110 and Mansoor 70no saw that the game was put out of reach for the away side.  In reply Egremont managed 75 all out with Stuart 'Entertainment' Dowson taking 5 wkts.
