He is the third player in the world who achieves the highest wicket in the world after Warn and Muralidharan. But he is the second man who has taken 10 wickets in an innings. He is the man who touches the record of English bowler Jim Larker. The 36 years old man has been selected as a test captain for Indian team in the home series along with Pakistan. Drear readers, I want to remind you that Kumble took 10 wickets against Pakistan in 1999.

SouthAsiaBiz reported

However, many cricket fans do not even know who the third highest wicket taker in test cricket is. Yes, it is Anil Kumble, the man who has been doing his job silently for India. Kumble is unlucky that he is in an era of Inidan cricket when batmen like Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and Rahul Dravid took away all the media spot.

Now it is an important issue in Indian cricket because the juniors are doing well but the evolvement of Kumble will take away the opportunity of the juniors Harbhajan Singh or Murali Kartik who did well for the both series home and aboard.
