The Indian pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has so far played 114 ODIs, 43 T20Is and 21 Tests, had a dream ODI debut in 2012. He bowled out Pakistan’s Mohammad Hafeez with an in-swinger off his first ball on debut, thereby becoming the first Indian pacer and the 20th bowler overall to take a wicket on the first ball of their ODI career. Kumar achieved the feat on December 30, 2012, at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai finishing with bowling figures of 9-3-27-2.

The 30-year-old speedster has now 132 ODI wickets, 63 Test wickets and 41 T20I wickets.
