The 1967 Gillette Cup Final was a one-day cricket match between Kent County Cricket Club and Somerset County Cricket Club played on 2 September 1967 at Lord's in London. It was the fifth final of the Gillette Cup, the first English domestic knock-out competition between first-class sides. Both teams were making their first appearance in the final. Kent were regarded as pre-match favourites given their good form all season, in both one-day and first-class cricket.
Kent won the toss and chose to bat first. Both opening batsmen, Mike Denness and Brian Luckhurst scored half-centuries to help them score 193 runs. They were bowled out with two balls of their innings remaining; Roy Palmer and Bill Alley took three wickets each for Somerset. When Somerset batted, a few players made good starts, but none managed to make half-centuries or above. Peter Robinson achieved their highest score, with 48 runs. The county were eventually dismissed for 161, granting Kent victory by 32 runs. The victory was the start of a successful period of cricket for Kent, who won eleven trophies between 1967 and 1979.
