"It would be a good experience. I know the club rugby final gets played there [McLean Park] so it would be good if we can push for a club cricket final there as well," Kenworthy said.
Stirling labelled it as one of the best premier club semifinals in the province.
"It was a true but slow wicket with all the weather we've had recently," he said, adding the outfield was quite long so everyone had their work cut out.
It ended the dream summer of NTOB, who broke a 112-year-old record after winning the overall Challenge Cup for the fifth consecutive year early this month, but Stirling said the Texans were always a big-game outfit.
"Our guys were just showing a lot of self-belief and executing under pressure so we're just over the moon we got one over a very good club and we're playing in the final," he said.
Both semifinals didn't start until midday because of heavy dew but the Anderson Park one was reduced to 46 overs while the Taradale Park one went to 50 despite poor light.
Stirling said Taradale and Havelock North were developing sides with strong communities and budding talent but the Maroons have had the wood on them this season.
With tertiary students returning all teams were missing players but they would be whistling back one or two considering Sam Prescott was unavailable because he was getting married this Saturday.
Veteran Kurt Richards and a younger Mickey Stirling bowled the 46th and 45th overs, conceding only three runs between them to stifle NTOB needing four to win.
Prolific run scorer Brad Schmulian again was the mainstay of the Havelock North innings with 72 runs before Stevie Smidt ran him out.
Aucklander Schmulian has scored 825 runs for his club side, averaging about 96, 530 runs for the Hawke's Bay senior men's representative side and 200-odd for Central Districts A.
"His run tally has not been seen in Hawke's Bay, oh I don't know, at least in my 15 years here," he said, adding the South Africa-born allrounder must be the next batsman in waiting for the Stags.
Wicketkeeper Kenworthy said light was an issue probably for the Cornwall batsmen who faced a mammoth task of overhauling 199 for victory.
Taradale opener Jason Trembath laid the foundation with 49 runs, smacking four sixes and three boundaries in an aerial approach to overcome the hairy outfield.
"That's his nature so that's why he's at the top order," he said of Trembath, although Callum Hewetson top scored with 59 runs at No 5.
"Callum showed a lot of maturity and held that middle order together when we lost a few wickets."
Cornwall batsmen failed to build on starts although it didn't help that captain Jacob Smith departed first for one run as an opener.
Veteran new-ball bowler Luke Wright again spearheaded the attack with 3-30 but offspinner Dean Foxcroft (2-18) was the most frugal and also had a hand in three catching dismissals.
Kenworthy lauded seniors Angus McKnight, who threw himself around the outfield, and Matt Nelson, who scored 20 runs.
