8 longest names in Indian cricket

Laxman is counted among India’s top batsmen of all time

#1 Ghulam Ahmed Hasan Mohammed Parkar

Parkar has represented India in both Tests and ODIs

Former Mumbai opening batsman Ghulam Parkar represented India in a solitary Test and 10 ODIs between the years 1982 and 1984. His brief foray into international cricket, though, was a largely forgettable one as he managed just 7 runs in his only Test and another 165 in 10 ODI innings.

Although he may not have achieved much success as an Indian cricketer, Ghulam Ahmed Hasan Mohammed Parkar certainly has the longest name among all players who have made appearances for the national team in any format.
