The Aussies and English are always known to come with excuses in their bags. Kumble, or for that matter Indians have never hidden behind such excuses for failures.<br/><br/>His historic claims after the sydney test match about the spirit of the game was testimony to the manner in which he carried himself on and off the field.<br/><br/>Hats off to the gentle giant !!!! Excellent article.

Hats off to the gentle giant !!!!

Just one point I wanted to add was that, Kumble is similar to McGrath as the former is not a great turner of the ball and the latter was not that fast and also couldn't swing the ball as much. But both of them were dead accurate. Unfortunately Kumble had to go through a lot of criticism for not being a big turner. Great post!
