Karuppiahyage Ravindra Pushpakumara (born July 21, 1975 in Panadura) is a Sri Lankan cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler.
Having impressed with the Under-19s, he made his Test debut in August 1994, against Pakistan, where he was noted as the fastest bowler Sri Lanka had had for many years, and thus a perfect complement to Chaminda Vaas. Despite his obvious pace, his variation on duller pitches such as many of those he would find in India was lacking, and thus he failed to get into the Sri Lankan side on a regular basis.
His last Test was against Bangladesh in the Asian Test Championship. Since 2004 Ravindra has played Twenty-20 cricket.
