Ghulam Ahmed pronunciationⓘ (4 July 1922 – 28 October 1998) was an off spin bowler who captained India in Test cricket.

[1] He was educated at the Madrassa-e-Aliya, a school established in 1872 during the reign of the Nizams for the elite and served the city's nobility.

He was the leading bowler on the 1952 tour, taking 80 wickets in first-class matches at 21.92, and 15 in the four Tests at 24.73.

Wisden said he "had days when he looked in the highest world class, but on other occasions he lacked bite".
