England v Australia: 2nd Investec Ashes Test - Day Four
The historic Lord's Cricket Ground

Anil Kumble

Third Test: England v India - Day Three
Anil Kumble is one of the two bowlers to take all ten wickets in an innings

Former India captain and coach Anil Kumble is the leading Test wicket-taker for his country and the third-highest in the world as he has scalped 619 wickets in 132 matches at an average of 29.65. The leggie was very vital for India wherever he played as he had the ability to turn the match on its head irrespective of where the match is being played and the conditions at the venue.

He has registered 35 wicket-hauls in Test cricket out of which one was a ten-wicket haul in an innings. At Lord's, his numbers look average by the standards he had for himself as he has taken 12 wickets in six innings at an average of 41 with 3/84 being his best. Also, his only Test ton came at The Oval, which is a few kilometres away from Lord's.
