Man Mohan Sood pronunciation (help·info) (6 July 1939 – 19 January 2020) was an Indian cricketer. He was born in Lahore, and played in one Test in 1960.[1] He played first-class cricket in India from 1957 to 1965.[2]
Sood was a middle-order batsman. After top-scoring with 73 for the Indian Board President's XI against the touring Australians in late December 1959[3] he was selected for the Fourth Test two weeks later.[4] Batting at number nine, he failed twice, and India lost by an innings.[5] He made his only first-class century in 1960-61 when he scored a quick 170 for Delhi against Southern Punjab, adding 290 for the fifth wicket with Ramesh Saxena.[6]
He was later a prominent cricket administrator in the Delhi & District Cricket Association, and served as a national selector in the 1980s.[1]
