Ghulam Mohammad (12 July 1898 – 21 July 1966) was a cricketer who played first-class cricket in India from 1924 to 1939. He later lived in Pakistan.
Ghulam Mohammad was a left-arm medium-pace bowler and lower-order right-handed batsman. After doing well in the trial matches in 1931–32 he was selected to tour England with India's first Test touring team in 1932.[1] However, he took only three wickets in nine matches, and did not play in the Test match.[1]
He took his best figures for a Muslims and Parsees team against the touring MCC at Karachi in 1926–27: 5 for 114 and 2 for 27.[2] His highest score was 74, along with five wickets, to help the Maharaj Kumar of Vizianagram's XI win the final of the inaugural Moin-ud-Dowlah Gold Cup Tournament in 1930–31.[3]
