Anil Kumble is the best leg spinners we had in Indian cricket. Good Luck Anil. Come back to Indian team as a Bowling Coach. Our indian bowlers need ur guidance.
Very very bad of Anil Kumble. How can you ever forget Jawagal Srinath? I hope its accidental and not intentional.If the case is later, I am ashamed of the the greatest cricketer whom I have admired most of all :)

why should he mention of cricketers who have already retired...that way, he has to mention about so many...dont worry about the past....worry about the people who are still playing and part of the team...grow up...Kumble is known for his goodness and greatness...so, dont be ashamed of anything, he is a great player and will be remembered in the history books for the same...

He was mentioning all people now in Cricket arena (current players/coaches/selectors etc). Srinath is not in these group. So he might have missed Srinath by mistake.

haa haa haa .. rightly said.
he has always been a liability as far as fielding is concerned and i think after that tour of south africa where they dissected his bowling and called him a medium pacer and played him that way.. i think his career was almost over...

Easy to say and difficult to do. Not many have taken 600 plus wickets. It's a rare feat. Hats off to kumble. Everybody has off days in life. Bravo kumble. India is obliged to you.
Jumbo will be a role model for all of us by his character- never giving up, respect others, fighting till the end, unrelenting,dignified...In India, we hardly have such role models!
Wish you all the Luck and i was Watching the Live of the felicitatyion and I can see emotions in ur Eyes and same were in mine and many Indians.Wish you all the luck and India will Miss you like a true champion Bowler.
Indian govt gives Bharat Ratna to Jasraj, Bhimsen Joshi etc. But these guys have really made India proud outside, be it sports or whatever. Gavaskar, Kapil, Sachin, Dravid, Ganguly, Kumble and Laxman. I always think, they deserve the Bharat ratna more than the so called Classical Singers or half-scientists and gory politicians.

cricket is not an INDIAN game and these players played for the money and made handsome money. Why he shoud get Bharat Ratna?.
Kumble will be remembered for not only for his cricket achievement but also for the charachter he is. Never seem him fight with anybody on and off the field. Never lost his temper. He was a real ambassodor of not cricket but also as a representavie of India. The way he handled the racist issue is very much laudable. I wish him all the very best and I am sure he will be contributing in other field as well since he is a engineir by profession. Good luck and good wishes
Retiring at No 3 on the bowling charts ..is something that will be cherished for ever , you have left a signature behind and will be remebemered forver as "Jumbo"..
APART FROM LAST FEW SERIES THIS MAN HAS NEVER FAILED IN ANY SERIES MOST OF THE TIME HE WAS THE HIGHEST WKT TAKER...THIS IS OUT THE IMAGINE..ITS BECAUSR DUE TO KUMBLE WE REGISTARD OUR 1ST WHITE WAS SERIES AGAINST ENGLAND IN 1993, AND HE HAS DONE SO MUCH THAT EK GRANTH BAN JAYEGI UNKI.I SALUTE U....HE WAS FAR AHEAD OF POLTICS AND SCANDAL
