#4 A ten-for to last a lifetime
Wisden called it the best “bowling performance of all time”. And it came against arch-rivals Pakistan in the second Test at Delhi in February 1999. When Kumble picked up his tenth, Kumble became one of only two bowlers ever (the only other being Jim Laker of England in 1956) to have taken all ten wickets in a Test innings, taking 10 for 74. The loss of Chennai was avenged, India had a new hero and record for posterity was created.
