Stenhousemuir Cricket Club’s Peter Moses to represent Scotland at Over-60s World Cup.

A popular surgeon at Forth Valley Royal Hospital will represent Scotland at the International Men’s Cricket (IMC) Over-60s World Cup this summer.

LocHire Stenhousemuir Cricket Club’s honorary president Peter Moses, who is a consultant orthopaedic surgeon, is one 16 selected for the IMC tournament - which is taking place in Mississauga, Canada.

The event marks the third iteration of the over-60s world cup, with Moses having been part of the rest of the team at the 2024 tournament which took place in Australia. Moses’ efforts on the Gold Coast were recognised with the ‘Tourist of the Tour’ award going to him for his all round effort and contribution to the team.

The Scotland team have two warm-up matches planned this week in North Wales. The first match against the Welsh Over-60s side takes place tomorrow (Tuesday) at Bangor Cricket Club with a 11.30am start. Following that 24 hours later is another outing this time at Colwyn Bay Cricket Club.

Clark McConnachie is Scotland’s captain with Javaid Ashraf vice captain. Others heading to Canada include Imran Adrees, Stephen Allison, Bob Angus, Mike Davies, Kevin Ferrie, Graeme Garden, Cameron Glasgow, Michael Lumsden, Shahid Mahmood, Gordon McGurk, Tim Preston Jones, Dave Sharma, Jerry Smith and our very own Moses.

Meanwhile, last weekend brought two more wins for LocHire Stenhousemuir. Both were very narrow wins but very different games. The first XI won by 21 runs against West of Scotland at Hamilton Crescent while the seconds defeated Langside 2 at the Tryst by 17 runs.
