Lt. Col. '''Chandrasekhar Vaman Gadkari''' {{audio|Chandrashekhar_Gadkari.ogg|pronunciation}} (3 February 1928 – 11 January 1998) was an Indian [[Test cricket]]er.<br />
<br />
Gadkari was an attacking batsman, medium pace bowler and a great fielder. He made a fine impression as a fielder in the 1952/53 tour to West Indies in an Indian side that was noted for its fielding. He made 50* in the [[Bourda|Georgetown]] Test which remained his highest score. His other tour was to [[Pakistan]] in 1954/55. Gadkari co-holds the Test record with [[Shafiq Ahmed]] for the most matches played in a career without either winning or losing - 6.<ref name="Walmsley">{{cite book|last=Walmsley|first=Keith|title=Mosts Without in Test Cricket|year=2003|publisher=Keith Walmsley Publishing Pty Ltd|location=Reading, England |isbn=0947540067|pages=457}}.</ref><br />
<br />
He was commissioned into the army in 1949 and rose to become a lieutenant colonel. He represented Services in the [[Ranji Trophy]] thereafter. But the army service also restricted his appearances. He died in 1998 after a brief illness.<br />
