Rohit Kumar Gulati (born 2 November 1998) is a New Zealand cricketer who plays for Auckland.[1] Born in the Indian state of Punjab, he moved to New Zealand in 2022.[2]

Gulati is a slow left-arm orthodox spin bowler. He was born in the Punjab town of Beas, and played cricket for Punjab under-age teams. He aimed to play for Punjab, but while he was recovering from a leg injury, a cousin in the Auckland southern suburb of Weymouth suggested he join him at the Weymouth Cricket Club in the Counties Manukau Cricket Association, which he did in 2022.[2] He represented Counties Manukau from 2022–23 to 2024–25,[3] and made his first-class debut for Northern Districts in a Plunket Shield match in March 2025, taking three wickets in the drawn game.[4]

Northern Districts did not offer Gulati a contract for the 2025–26 season, so in 2025 he transferred to the Papatoetoe Cricket Club in the Auckland Cricket Association, thus qualifying to play for Auckland.[2] He was immediately selected for the Auckland Plunket Shield team, and took 5 for 46 in the second innings of the first match against Central Districts as Auckland completed an innings victory.[5] In his next match he took 10 wickets (match figures of 73–23–175–10) in a draw against his previous team, Northern Districts.[6] At the mid-point of the Plunket Shield season, Gulati was the tournament's leading wicket-taker with 22 wickets, and Auckland led the points table.[7]
