Madhya Pradesh bowler made world record as soon as he made his debut for India, record remains intact even after 35 years

It is every player's dream to perform in his debut match in such a way that it proves to be memorable forever. For batsmen, where it is a dream to score a century in their very first match, then bowlers hope to take maximum wickets, but not everyone gets success soon.
Some taste success and some feel disappointed. There was one such Indian player, who made such a record in his debut match that no bowler could break to date.
He surprised everyone by taking 16 wickets in the debut test match. It is none other than Team India's leg-spinner Narendra Hirwani, who made a mark in the world in his debut match itself.
Narendra Hirwani of Madhya Pradesh made his place in MP's Ranji team at the age of 16. After an excellent performance in first-class cricket, he got a chance to play in the home series against the West Indies in 1988. At the age of 19, Hirwani got a place in the team for the fourth Test in Chennai and this young bowler destroyed the batting order of the Windies team.
He made such a record in the debut test match that everyone was surprised, not just the Windies team. In the first innings, he took 8 wickets while bowling 18.3 overs and spent 61 runs during this. Even after this, Hirwani's pace did not stop, but in the second innings again he piled up the West Indies team.
In the second innings, he gave 75 runs in 15.2 overs and then took 8 wickets. He bundled out the West Indies innings for 160 runs. India won this match by 255 runs. In this way, Hirwani gave 136 runs in the debut match and took 16 wickets and it became a world record in itself. No one has been able to break this record to date.
Hirwani's career, which took a series of brilliant wickets in the debut match, ended soon. He started his career with a bang, but his end was nothing special. He took 36 wickets in 4 Test matches only, but he could not show the magic on foreign soil.
His career came to a full stop after just 17 Tests. Hirwani took 66 wickets in these 17 Test matches. He took 23 wickets in his career playing 18 ODIs. In this way, Hirwani took 732 wickets in 167 first-class matches.
