Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
With 12 runs needed off the last over and with Misbah-ul-Haq, who was already past 50, on strike, Dhoni had to take a big call as to who should bowl the last over. He chose Sharma over Harbhajan Singh and it was indeed a master-stroke decision from Dhoni as India were crowned champions.
Sharma then went on to represent Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, which was led by Dhoni. Though he was not a regular at the side, he played a few matches and remained with the franchise until 2011.
Sharma made his first-class debut during the 2001-02 season and was quite useful as an all-rounder. A fruitful season couple of years later saw him earn a place in the India ODI squad for the Bangladesh tour in 2004. He played three ODIs there and played just one more game against West Indies in 2007 as he was ineffective.
In November 2011, he met with a career-threatening car accident, where he suffered severe head injuries. However, Sharma recovered well and returned to the 2012-13 domestic season. He thanked Amit Tyagi, Haryana's physio ,for his speedy recovery. Though the chances of a comeback into the national side look bleak for Sharma at the moment, he continues to be an integral part of Haryana's setup in the domestic circuit.
Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Joginder Sharma has a few things in common with Kapil Dev. He plays for Haryana, can give the ball a mighty thwack and has the surprise factor with his nippy medium pace. Most importantly, he has the convention-defying streak that Kapil displayed everytime he played. Joginder bowls with a mixed action and can trouble the best with his lively seam bowling - like he did to Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman and Yuvraj Singh while playing for India A against India Seniors before the Australia series. With two successive hundreds and a ten-wicket haul at the start of the 2004-05 Ranji Trophy season, he won himself a place in India's one-day squad for the tour to Bangladesh. He was back to the grind of domestic cricket after that series but outstanding performances in the next two years won him a spot in the squad for the home series against West Indies in early 2007. Joginder will perhaps always be remembered as the bowler who dismissed Misbah-ul-Haq in the final of the inaugural ICC World Twenty20 to cap mad scenes in Johannesburg. Sharma, India's least likely bowling hero, had bowled three outstanding overs for 13 runs, taking one wicket, but it was that last dismissal that turned him into a hero. He has not played another game for India since, but was picked up by the Indian Premier League's Chennai franchise, the Super Kings.
