Our very own KCC member, Preetinder Singh, has been included in the India squad for the Over-50s World Cup Tournament being played between March 11-24 this year at Stellenbosch and Cape Town in South Africa. During trials in Mumbai the India selectors were impressed by his all-round abilities and, in particular, his agility in the field. Sadly, the tournament was abandoned midway due to the Covid-19 scare, but not before Preet had won the Spirit of Cricket Award for his efforts in his first match. Congratulations Preet, and we all wish you every success in future campaigns.

Held at the St. James’ Court Hotel on Saturday 16 November 2019. This black(ish) tie and colourful blazers event was attended by almost 100 members and guests.

Lord Bilimoria introduced our newest Patron, Baroness Prashar, in a resounding opening address (see video below). Tim Keleher and Nitin Chaturvedi were the joint winners of the Cricketer of the Year award, and amid warm applause, Navneet Bali and Tabrez Khan were inducted into the KCC Hall of Fame, each being awarded the Maroon Jacket for their dedication to the Club.

It was a truly fun evening enjoyed by all.
