Anyway, you h...Hey Pranav, you just stole my topic! Anyway, you have accurately mirrored my thoughts. Anil Kumble is not only an excellent cricketer but also a fantastic person.<BR/><BR/>I am of the opinion that, legends are to be treated with respect. You don't keep legends on the bench. As rightly pointed out by you, Kumble has always been a team-man, sitting on the bench for almost all the matches during the 2003 and 2007 World Cups.<BR/>The fact of the matter has been that Kumble has been a very down-to-earth cricketer who has always maintained a low profile. What catapults the other nobody's into the limelight is their one-off performance followed by the inane advertisements they do and also a lot of media coverage aptly managed by their publcists. Kumble has always shied away from unnecessary attention and focussed only on his cricket! <BR/><BR/>What was the point in not selecting Kumble for the ODIs after the 2003 WC, and then recall him for the 07 WC, only to make him sit on the bench? This is audacious tomfoolery!<BR/><BR/>Kumble is one of those rare cricketers who has always given 100% and been a true team-player. I am very happy that he has retired, and avoided subsequent ignominies! Here's wishing him a successful and prosperous life ahead. Cheers to JUMBO, not for the scalp of 6/12 against WI, not for the once-in-a-lifetime match haul of 10 wickets, not even for contributing immensely when the going got tough. But cheers to a person who displayed great sportsmanship and for believing that "The team comes first!". All of us will miss you. Thamks a lot for the rich heritage you are leaving behind.adityahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17393937370753502840noreply@blogger.com
