The Kumble-Kohli saga is not good for Indian cricket


If Virat Kohli can't gel well with Anil Kumble then I'm sure, he can't gel well with anyone. If Kohli's influence leads to the end Kumble's regime in Indian cricket, I don't think, it would be good for Indian cricket.

Kumble is someone who possesses a sharp cricketing brain and great man-management abilities. His vision about the game and ethics impressed Sachin Tendulkar in his playing days and Sachin was one of the saddest persons in the dressing room when Jumbo retired as Sachin knew his worth and he would be devoid of a sharp and composed mind in the remaining part of his illustrious career.

Kumble is a role model for many and he's one of those mentors who can act as a lighthouse for the youngsters during their tough times.

At times Kohli is too arrogant and it needs to be controlled. Kohli is yet to reach the level of Sachin Tendulkar or Anil Kumble and thus, needs a lot of soul searching.

I thank Ramachandra Guha for taking the hierarchy of India cricket to the cleaners in his resignation letter. These are hard hitting facts which some of us always used to say. Now, Mr. Guha has hit the nails on the head.

Thank You
