Anil Kumble vs England, Chennai, 1993

England were already under pressure having lost the first Test of the series in Mumbai. And things got worse here, with India scoring a mammoth 560 in their first innings. The spin trio of Kumble, Rajesh Chauhan and Venkatapathy Raju worked beautifully in tandem and bowled England out for 286 in their first innings.

Following on, England faced a rampaging Kumble, who was almost impossible to face on a wearing track. Kumble took 6 wickets in 21 overs, as England succumbed to their worst ever defeat against India. It was Kumble’s first 5-wicket haul on home soil, and it gave a glimpse of how deadly the leg spinner was going to prove on Indian soil.
