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

#1 Finalists of the ICC Champions Trophy 2017

India couldn’t clear the final hurdle

India, in the recent Champions Trophy, hosted by England, went on to qualify for the Finals against Pakistan in London. Albeit, they lost the game, credit should be given to India for playing brilliantly in the previous games to reach the Final showdown.

India started off with a thunderous victory against Pakistan, but suffered an improbable defeat against Sri Lanka in their second game. In their must-win clash, India stormed past South Africa to book a berth in the semi-finals.

In the semi-final, they thrashed Bangladesh by nine wickets to qualify for their second consecutive finals in the Champions Trophy. Though India couldn’t go the distance in the Championship, Kumble’s role was pivotal in their journey.
