4. Ajay Sharma
Ajay Sharma will be regarded as one of the many incomplete stories in Indian cricket. He made his ODI debut in 1988 and was in and out of the national team till 1993. He played one Test and 31 One-Day Internationals. While he scored 53 runs in his one Test, he totalled 424 runs in 31 ODIs for India.
In 129 First-Class matches, he scored 10,120 runs at an average of 67.46. Meanwhile, he never hit a run count above 60 during his five-year international career. Sharma also bowled slow left-arm orthodox, taking 87 First-Class and 15 International wickets. His First-Class career ended prematurely due to match-fixing charges.
