Are there any Indians who can play a sport other than cricket on a world-class level?

I know there's one tennis female, good-looking, who does ok until she gets into the later rounds of tournaments, but other than that...can any Indian make it as a rugby player, sprinter, boxer, or anything that involves strength and/or speed? Probably not or else they'd be doing it, but just thought I'd ask.
Neo, i was invited to an Indian volleyball game and i was perplexed that the tallest guy was my height (184cm) because I'm not that tall. But they told me this one "tall" Indian guy was dangerous around the net, and to be careful. So I put a little mustard on my first joust. I must have outjumped him by a foot and spiked the ball off his head. Everyone stopped and looked at me in amazement. I said, "If you think that was something...come play where I play. I'm not even a spiker, just a setter."
This is my impression of Indian athletics. Good team play and fundamentals, but the athleticism is sorely lacking.
By the way, if chess is considered a "sport" in India, then that pretty much answers my question for me. Make sure to get a few more reps in moving them pawns around. Builds good arm stamina. lol
 
There was a F1 Indian Driver for Jordan and Test Driver for Williams F1 but now races for A1GP

To neo: ...Seriously Just don't
