'''Pananmal Hotchand Punjabi''' {{audio|Pananmal_Punjabi.ogg|pronunciation}} (20 September 1921 – 4 October 2011) was an [[India]]n [[cricket]]er who played in five [[Test cricket|Tests]] in 1955.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/1/1001/1001.html| title = Pananmal Punjabi | publisher = www.cricketarchive.com | accessdate = 2011-09-23}}</ref>

A right-handed opening batsman, Punjabi had a long but somewhat intermittent [[first-class cricket]] career, starting with two matches for [[Sind cricket team|Sind]] before partition and resuming more regularly from 1951 for [[Gujarat cricket team|Gujarat]]. In the 1953-54 season, he scored three centuries in three matches and was then picked for the [[Indian cricket team in Pakistan in 1954–55|tour to Pakistan]] the following season, 1954–55. He opened the batting in all five Tests with [[Pankaj Roy]], and scored 164 runs, the fourth highest aggregate for the team. But his highest was only 33 and the series consisted largely of defensive cricket with all Tests drawn, the first time this had happened in a five-match series.

He played on in Indian domestic cricket until 1959-60, scoring his highest score, an undefeated 224, in his penultimate game, but was never selected again for Test cricket. Despite his name, Punjabi came from [[Karachi]], spoke [[Sindhi language|Sindhi]], represented [[Gujarat cricket team|Gujarat]] for most of his first class career, and was employed as a supervisor in [[Burmah Oil|Burmah Shell]].<ref>Richard Cashman, ''Patrons, Players and the Crowd.'', Orient Longman (1980)</ref>

Punjabi died in 2011 but his death was noticed in cricketing circles only in 2014.<ref>[https://www.cricketcountry.com/news/deepak-shodhan-not-pananmal-punjabi-is-the-oldest-living-indian-test-cricketer-141527 ''Deepak Shodhan, not Pananmal Punjabi is the oldest living Indian Test cricketer'', Cricketcountry, 25 May 2014]</ref>
