Former India medium pacer Chetan Sharma has many achievements to his credit: third Indian to claim a wicket in his first over on Test debut (bowled Mohsin Khan at Lahore in 1984); the first Indian to grab a 10-wicket haul on English soil (10-188 at Birmingham in 1986); and the first bowler ever to take a World Cup hat-trick (against New Zealand in Nagpur in 1987).

However, he will forever be remembered for the last-ball six Pakistani batting legend Javed Miandad scored off him in the Australasia Cup final in Sharjah on April 18, 1986.
