Atul Manibhai Mehta (born 13 December 1949) is a former Indian cricketer who played first-class cricket between 1967 and 1981.[1]

Mehta was born in Rangoon, Burma, where his parents owned a business.[2] A batsman and leg-spin bowler, he played Ranji Trophy cricket for Saurashtra, Bombay and Gujarat.
