Peshwa Cricket Club

About us

Peshwa CC was formed in August 2002 by a handful of very keen, passionate and enthusiastic club cricketers that originate from Maharashtra - a mid west state in India. Maharashtrian cities such as Mumbai (formerly Bombay), Pune, Nagpur have generated talented cricketers for the National team and what started as a friendly beer match at Kenton CC on the 18th August 2002 continues to grow - we currently run two sides in the Middlesex League playing regular Saturday cricket. Age, race/ religion and abilities are not the membership criteria - enthusiasm to learn the the game and comradeship are the key factors

Having trialled a friendly side in the formative years, the season 2004 saw Peshwa CC debut successfully in the 1987 League finishing runners up. With the increase of player members, we formed two sides and currently have our home ground at Jewish Free School grounds, near Kingsbury in north west London. Apart from the Saturday cricket, we organise various social get togethers (Darbars) to strengthen the friendships. Winter training takes place via indoor nets and the club is run by an elected committee to steer the continual progression.

PESHWAs were the last successful ruling administrators from 1749 to 1818 in Western India and in keeping with the 'PESHWAI values' - we value competitiveness, open communications and embrace the spirit of cricket on and off the field.
