Rajesh Chauhan (pronunciation^ⓘ; born 19 December 1966) is a former Indian cricketer who played in 21 Tests and 35 One Day Internationals from 1993 to 1998. He was part of the Indian spin trio of Kumble-Raju-Chauhan, in the 1990s.

Although his own contributions were only of limited value, India lost none of the 21 Tests in which he played.^[1] The feat for which he is perhaps remembered most is his last-over six off Saqlain Mushtaq at Karachi in 1997, which sealed a four-wicket win for India against Pakistan.

His father Govind Raja Chauhan, who lived in Ranchi, was also a cricketer and played Ranji Trophy in 1957 & Duleep Trophy in 1964.^[2] Their ancestral village is Vidi in Kutch and he belongs to a small community known as Kutch Gurjar Kshatriya.^[2][3] Chauhan also served as Chairman of All-India Youth Wing of Kutch Gurjar Kshatriya community for years 1993–96 and is an active social member of the community.^[2]

In April 2007 he was seriously injured in a car accident. He suffered multiple fractures as well as bruising on his leg, back, hand and head.^[4][5]
