Debutants who took a wicket off their first ball in ODIs

When Bhuvneshwar Kumar dismissed Mohammad Hafeez with an inswinging delivery, he joined the list of debutants who took a wicket off their first ball in ODIs.

The surprising thing is that Inzamam, Lloyd, Ramesh and Wavell Hinds were better known for their batting exploits despite their first ball wickets.
