Vijay Rajindernath About this soundpronunciation (help·info) (7 January 1928 in Amritsar – 22 November 1989 in Chennai) was an Indian cricketer.

Vijay Rajindernath was one of the four wicket keepers that India tried out against Pakistan in the 1952-1953 series. He played in the Test at Bombay which India won losing only four wickets. Rajindernath did not bat but effected four stumpings,[1] three of which were off Subhash Gupte.[2] He still holds the Test match record for the most stumpings in a complete career without a catch.[3] He was replaced by Ebrahim Maka for the next Test. He also played in three 'Tests' against a Commonwealth XI in 1950-1951.

Vijay Rajindernath studied in Govt. College, Lahore and took M.A. in Hindi from Benares. He worked for Burmah Shell and later with Indo-Nippon batteries in Baroda.
