    Awsome Anil Kumble A Real Jumbo of Indian Cricket.

    Advert.


    No bowler in history won India more Test matches than Anil Kumble, and there probably hasn't been a harder trier either. Like the great tall wristspinners Bill O'Reilly and his own idol BS Chandrasekhar, Kumble traded the legspinner's proverbial yo-yo for a spear, as the ball hacked through the air rather than hanging in it and came off the pitch with a kick rather than a kink. The method provided him stunning success, particularly on Indian soil, where his deliveries burst like packets of water upon the feeblest hint of a crack, and more than one modern-day batsman remarked that there was no more difficult challenge in cricket than handling Kumble on a wearing surface.

    He has served the Indian cricket for 18 years not only as a great cricketer also as a great human being without any controversies, he is a role model not only to a cricketers but for every human beings.

    Its interesting in his retirement speech, he said - It took lot of efforts for him to disprove many critics., as it for Sachin Tendulkar to prove about his predictions.
