Neetu David (born 1 September 1977) is an Indian former cricketer and current chairperson of the selection panel of the India women's cricket team.[1] She played as a slow left-arm orthodox bowler. She appeared in 10 Test matches and 97 One Day Internationals for India between 1995 and 2008. She played domestic cricket for Uttar Pradesh and Railways.[2][3]

David holds the record for the best bowling figures in a Women's Test innings, taking 8/53 against England in November 1995.[4] She is India's fourth-highest all-time wicket-taker in WTest cricket, and second-highest all-time wicket-taker for India in WODI cricket.[5][6] She was also the first Indian bowler to 100 WODI wickets.[7]

David retired from international cricket in 2006, but reversed the decision in 2008, subsequently being picked in India's Asia Cup squad.[8][2] She played her last international match on India's tour of England in 2008.[9] She played her final domestic match in 2013, winning the final of the 2012–13 Senior Women's T20 League with Railways.[10]

In September 2020, it was announced that David had been appointed as the chairperson of India's women's national selection panel.[1]
