Ken Skewes

Kenneth James Skewes (born 30 November 1984) in Darwin, Northern Territory. Skewes currently resides in Adelaide. He is an Australian cricketer who played for the Southern Redbacks.

Skewes plays his Grade cricket for the Woodville District Cricket Club and in 2008 was instrumental in the club's first premiership success for 30 years, scoring 122 not out and taking 5 wickets in the Grand Final against West Torrens at the Adelaide Oval.

The following summer, despite losing his South Australia contract, Skewes had another solid season for Woodville. He scored 49 in Woodville's second consecutive Grand Final win, this time against Northern Districts.

In the British 2010 summer, he is contracted to return to play at Middleton CC[1] where he enjoyed a productive season scoring nearly 800 runs,[2] unfortunately this was cut short as he has to return to Australia midway through the season.

A prodigious puller and cutter of the ball, he has quickly worked his way into the hearts and minds of the Middleton faithful hitting a century on debut[3] and 99 not out in his first league match[4]
