Ahmed Raza (20 August 1910 – 21 December 1996) was a cricketer who played first-class cricket in India and Pakistan from 1929 to 1960.

His highest score was 101 in 1934-35 in Northern India's first match in the Ranji Trophy, when he added 304 for the second wicket with George Abell. Between 1931-32 and 1960-61 he played 14 times in the annual match between Punjab University and Punjab Governor's XI, at first for the university, and later for the Governor's XI, which he captained in his last first-class match when he was 50.

He was a member of the Burki clan, of whom about 40 men have played first-class cricket. Three of his sisters became the mothers of Pakistan Test cricket captains: Iqbal Bano was the mother of Javed Burki; Mubarak married the Test cricketer Jahangir Khan and was the mother of Majid Khan; Shaukat was the mother of Imran Khan.
