5 best moments of Anil Kumble's tenure as coach of Team India

Anil Kumble led India to a dream Test run

#2 Unbeaten in a Test series

The team lost just one Test match under Kumble

Ever since Anil Kumble took over the coaching mantle of the Indian National cricket team, India have played five Test series against West Indies, New Zealand, England, Bangladesh and Australia. The astonishing part is that they ended up unbeaten under the coaching of the leg-spinner.

Last year, in July, India toured the West Indies and beat them by 2-0 in the four-Test series. Afterwards, they whitewashed New Zealand by margins of 197, 178 and 321 runs in the three-Test series. England weren’t spared either as they stumbled to a 4-0 defeat.

Australia was India’s toughest hurdle, but India weathered the storm to turn victorious after losing the opening Test. To be precise, India lost a solitary Test, while winning 12 games out of the 17 matches under Kumble’s coaching.
