#12 Joginder Sharma
Most fans know Joginder Sharma as the man who bowled the final delivery of the World T20 final and permanently etched his name into the history books of Indian cricket. However, few will know that Joginder never played another international match.
After the 2007 World T20, due to inconsistent performances in his limited opportunities, he was dropped from the Indian national side and had to go back to domestic cricket, where he turned out for Haryana.
However, despite his inconsistent performances and axe from the Indian side, he was bought by the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings at the inaugural IPL auctions and played for the side for the first three editions of the tournament.
Joginder was offered a job with the Haryana police after the 2007 World T20, and he took it. Over the years, he rose through the ranks and as of 2016, had risen to the position of the Deputy Superintendent of Police, having stopped playing competitive cricket.
