Raghvendrarao Vijay Bharadwaj pronunciation (help·info) (born August 15, 1975 in Bangalore) is an Indian cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm offbreak bowler.

Vijay Bharadwaj was first called up to the Indian national team in the 1999-2000 season after an impressive season in Indian domestic cricket in which he scored more than 1000 runs. He made his ODI debut in the LG Cup in Nairobi and initially impressed with his bowling in particular. However, poor performances in the following Test and ODI matches against New Zealand saw him dropped from the side.

He continued to produce strong performances in domestic cricket which caught the selectors' eyes and allowed him to stay within contention, but other than a 2003 tour with the India A team against England he did not get further opportunities at international level.
