Kenneth Hosking (dates of birth and death unknown) was an English cricketer active in the 1930s. Hosking, whose batting and bowling styles are unknown, played in one first-class cricket match.

Hosking made his debut for Cornwall against the Kent Second XI in the 1932 Minor Counties Championship.[1] He continued to play minor counties cricket for Cornwall until 1934, after which he left England for the British Raj. While there he played a single first-class match for Mysore against Madras in the 1935–36 Ranji Trophy at the Gymkhana Ground, Bangalore.[2] He scored 30 runs in Mysore's first-innings, before being dismissed by Ram Singh, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for 2 runs by Morappakam Gopalan, with Madras winning the match by 109 runs.[3] Upon returning to England, Hosking played eight Minor Counties Championship matches for Cornwall in 1938.[1]
