ANIL KUMBLE
|
Few of the bowlers in the Indian cricket would ever touch the feat which Kumble achieved for himself and for India. Anil Kumble, the man who bid adieu to the International cricket forever on November 3, 2008 will always be remembered as a man who played the game in true gentleman style. Hailed as India's greatest match winner, Kumble made his country proud on more than one occasion. Born on October 17, 1970 in Bangalore, he made his Test debut in 1990 against England. More than 600 batsman became victims to Kumble's spinning googlies in his cricket career spanned over 18 years.
