Stuart Robert Kennedy (born 9 January 1965) is a former Scottish international cricketer who represented the Scottish national side between 1995 and 1997. He played as a right-arm medium-pace bowler.

Kennedy was born in Paisley, and attended Stanley Green High School. His club cricket was played for the Ferguslie Cricket Club.[1] Kennedy made his debut for Scotland in July 1995, against Denmark.[2] At the 1997 ICC Trophy in Malaysia, he played in eight of Scotland's nine matches, and took eight wickets.[3] His best performance at the tournament came against Hong Kong, when he took 3/15 from 7.4 overs, while he also took 2/20 from ten overs against Bermuda and 1/12 from nine overs against Denmark.[4] Later in the year, Kennedy played a single match for Scotland in the 1997 NatWest Trophy, against Gloucestershire.[5] That was his last appearance for the national team, with his cricket career being limited by his position as manager of a freight forwarding company.[6]
