Madhusudan Ramachandra Rege (18 March 1924 – 16 December 2013) was an Indian cricketer who played in one Test match in 1949 against the West Indies.[1] He has the dubious distinction of being the first Indian cricketer to be called for throwing.
He played for Maharashtra from 1944–45 to 1954–55, captaining the team from 1951–52 to 1954–55. His highest score was 164, against Gujarat in the Ranji Trophy in 1953–54.[2]
For Maharashtra against the MCC in 1951–52, he opened the batting and scored 133 out of the team's total of 249. It was in that match that he was called for throwing.[3]
