Then Anil Kumble Wasn't The Man

Tactics are an integral part of any campaign and cricket is no different. A lot of planning and plotting goes into making a successful team and the timing of the moves often make the difference between success and failure. Former India captain and now also former coach, Anil Kumble, in one sweeping move, proved that current India skipper Virat Kohli still has a lot to learn Authentic Texans Womens Jersey about strategy and timing. The issue of differences between Kumble and Kohli spawned just before the ICC Champions Trophy, and while everyone - ranging from former players to Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) officials to even Kohli had something to say on this, Kumble kept stoically silent throughout the period.
There were only some whispers and conjecture that he may not continue with the team, and even those quietened down once BCCI declared that Kumble would go to the West Indies with the team.
The first sign of life from the former leg-spinner came when there were reports that he would not be flying out with the team headed for the Caribbean. But even then, there was an excuse of the International Cricket Council (ICC) meeting.
The astute captain and coach in Kumble waited till the team had taken http://www.arizonacardinals... off and were well away in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean before let off the bombshell in the shape of a well-considered and prepared statement.
Even then, he did not call a press conference or leave himself open to questions. At the same time, he was categorical in his criticism of Kohli.
The timing was perfect in the sense that even if Kohli wanted to respond, he would only be able to do so once he reached the West Indies, a good 10 hours' flying time away, and then some.
By that time, public opinion would be formed and cemented.
The master tactician bowled a great over, which left even a great batsman like Kohli struggling for timing.
Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar came down heavily on reports suggesting that Anil Kumble was a hard taskmaster and that didn't go down well with some of the Indian players. Speaking exclusively to NDTV on Tuesday, Gavaskar said, "So you want softies. You want somebody to just tell you, 'ok boys, don't practice today because you guys are not feeling well, ok take a holiday, go shopping'. You want that kind of a person. If somebody is a hard taskmaster and he has got you results like Anil Kumble has got over the last one year. If any of the players are complaining, I feel those players are the ones who should be left out of the team."
Gavaskar minced no words. "Because honestly, what Anil Kumble has achieved for India as a player and what he has [url=http://www.officialvancouvercanucks.com/Adidas-Alex-Burrows-Jersey]Authenti... Alex Burrows Womens Jersey achieved for India over the last one year, has been nothing short of phenomenal. So I would rather not have Anil Kumble being maligned or being bad-mouthed as a hard taskmaster or his headmasterly approach for what I have been reading in the papers.
"But what this is sending a signal for the next coach is either bow down to what the players want you to do, otherwise you, like one of India's cricket legends Anil Kumble, you will have to step down and that is a sad, sad, sad message," added Gavaskar.
Asked about Kumble decision to step down and whether it meant Virat Kohli sent negative signals, Gavaskar said, "Once the CAC (the Cricket Advisory Committee) had given its ok, I would have thought that Anil would carry on. I have very little idea about the differences between the two (Kohli and Kumble), if at all there were any differences, but it is a sad day because he has been one of the greatest cricketers that India has produced and for him to not want to do the job for whatever reason, and perhaps he might come up with the reasons over the next couple of days but that is really sad for Indian cricket."
Elaborating on the differences between the two, Gavaskar went on to add, "There will always be differences in a group of more than two or three people. That's bound to happen when you are in a tense situation... India has won everything [url=http://www.indianapoliscoltsauthorizedstore.com/anthony-castonzo-jersey]htt... since the time Anil took over. I can't see Kumble doing much wrong in one year and the only reason this kind of a day has come is clearly because there has to be something which didn't quite gel in that group."
As to who would take over as the next India coach, Gavaskar said," I don't know who will fill his shoes. Maybe for the moment in the West Indies, you will just have somebody like a Sanjay Bangar who is very well respected in the team to take over because it is a short trip but before India goes to Sri Lanka, the coach has to be appointed. It could well be Sanjay Bangar again, although he has not thrown his hat in the ring. Because he has got the experience of coaching. It is for the CAC to take a call on that."
