Mohammad Nawaz (মোহাম্মদ নওয়াজ) is a Pakistani international cricketer. In August 2018, he was one of 33 players to be awarded a central contract for the 2018–19 season by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).

Nawaz was born into a Pashtun family, originally belonging to Akbarpura, a village in northwestern part of Nowshera district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Nawaz's family is settled in Rawalpindi, Punjab, for many years now. He received his early education from the F.G. Boys School in Rawalpindi.

In 2018, he married Izdihaar, a South African diagnostic radiographer of Saudi Arabian descent.

Nawaz was bought by Quetta Gladiators for the 2016 Pakistan Super League (PSL). In his debut match for the franchise against Islamabad United, he took 4 wickets for 13 runs in 4 overs. He finished the tournament as the fourth leading wicket-taker. His performance in the initial phase of the PSL resulted in a call-up to Pakistan's 2016 ICC World Twenty20 squad.

Due to his performance in the 2016 season, he was retained by the team for the 2017 season. He finished the season with 10 wickets in the 10 matches he played.

He made his Twenty20 International debut for Pakistan against the United Arab Emirates in the 2016 Asia Cup on 29 February 2016. He was hit for 38 runs from 3 overs after being called to bowl by captain Shahid Afridi. Waqar Younis, the head coach, criticised Afridi for this and said that it was 'unfair' for him to call Nawaz up being relatively new and that it 'destroyed the youngster's confidence'.

He made his One Day International debut for Pakistan against Ireland on 18 August 2016, scoring a half-century. In September 2016, he was named man of the match in the final of the 2016–17 National T20 Cup. He made his Test debut for Pakistan against the West Indies in Dubai on 13 October 2016.

In June 2020, he was named as one of four reserve players for Pakistan's tour to England during the COVID-19 pandemic. In September 2021, he was named in Pakistan's squad for the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. In July 2022, in the first match against Sri Lanka, he took his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket.

In September 2022, he was instrumental in a record win against India during the Asia Cup, being Pakistan's highest successful run-chase against India in a T20I, eventually named man of the match for his all-round contributions.
