New Delhi: Veteran Indian cricketer Anil Kumble's move to step down as the coach of the Indian cricket team is nothing less that a huge shock for his fans. The legendary leggie, who has had a memorable stint with the Indian team, decided to take the step after reports of his alleged rift with Indian skipper Virat Kohli hit the Internet.

A new revelation has been made regarding Kumble's resignation. According to sources, in a team meeting two days ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy final, Kohli had an argument with Kumble and he even abused him.

Kohli also told Kumble that members of the Indian team were not in favour of him continuing as coach post which the latter said, "Enough is enough."

In a statement posted on his Twitter handle, Kumble said that the partnership with the captain was "untenable", and also clarified that it was only a day before that he got to know through the BCCI that Kohli had reservations with his `style` and his continual as the head coach.

"I am honoured by the confidence reposed in me by the CAC, in asking me to continue as head coach. The credit for the achievements of the last one year goes to the captain, the entire team, coaching and support staff," Kumble said. "Post this intimation, I was informed for the first time yesterday by the BCCI that the captain had reservations with my `style` and about my continuing as the head coach."

"I was surprised since I have always respected the role boundaries between captain and coach. Though the BCCI attempted to resolve the misunderstandings between the captain and me, it was apparent that the partnership was untenable, and I therefore believe it is best for me to move on," he added.

The 46-year-old, who was put in charge last June, went on to add that he brought to the table professionalism, discipline, commitment, honesty, complementary skills and diverse views. He also stated that coaching role for him was like `holding a mirror` to drive self-improvement in the team`s interest.

"Professionalism, discipline, commitment, honesty, complementary skills and diverse views are the key traits I bring to the table. These need to be valued for the partnership to be effective," he said.

"I see the coach`s role akin to `holding a mirror` to drive self-improvement in the team`s interest. In light of these `reservations` I believe it is best I hand over this responsibility to whomever the CAC and BCCI deem fit," he added.

Kumble also thanked the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Cricket Advisory Committee (CA) comprising his former teammates Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly and V.V.S. Laxman for giving him the opportunity to serve the game.

"Let me reiterate that it has been an absolute privilege to have served as head coach for the last one year. I thank the CAC, BCCI, CoA and all concerned. I also wish to thank the innumerable followers and fans of Indian cricket for their continued support. I will remain a well-wisher of the great cricketing tradition of my country forever," he signed up.

Kumble`s one year contract expired at the end of the ICC Champions Trophy but he was given the option to travel with the team to the West Indies for the limited overs series beginning on Friday.

While the team left for the Caribbean earlier on Tuesday, Kumble did not accompany the team raising doubts over his continuance as the head coach. Kumble decided to stay back in London for the International Cricket Council`s (ICC) `Annual Conference` as he is the chairman of the Cricket Committee while the Indian team boarded the flight to Barbados.

Comments: Didn't MS Dhoni also work with Anil Kumble? I wonder what was Dhoni's experience like and whether he had any problems with him?

After all the only difference between PCB and BCCI is $$$. Everything else is similar.
 
Can't believe Kohli can do that, the Younger Cricketers these days.

Eish.
 
wow the fame and the money can get to someones head so much that they forget how to respect tgeir seniors.

this is one of the reason he will never surpass tendulkar in term of respect he earned over the years.


kumble is one of the most humble guy and one of the legend of indian cricket but him being abused by younger players is very unfortunate.

I have lost all the respect for Kohli. He might be the worst thing happened to Indian cricket long term, the guy is changing culture of Indian cricket.
 
Feels good to observe the drama from across the border for a change.
 
Kohli the batsman may arguably be the best thing to have happened to Indian cricket since the emergence of Sachin Tendulkar as a precocious young thing back in the nineties. However, Kohli the leader can potentially set India back a generation due to a lack of finesse and fortitude. The sooner the BCCI sack him, the better it will be for his own legacy as a cricketer in the global game. All the noise that has crept out of the rumour mill over the past few days paint a sordid picture of Kohli's professionalism. It stands in stark contrast to the graceful dignity brought to the captaincy post by his predecessor. If the BCCI allow this to fester, the next coaching appointment will be a busted flush from the beginning.
 
Kumble has played cricket for 20 years, he definitely deserves some respect.

No matter how spoiled your working relations are, you simply can't abuse your senior.

It hurts to see a gentleman like him treated so disgracefully.
 
Poor stuff, Kumble is a top guy and real gentleman/legend, one of the nicest blokes in cricket. And it had been alleged that Kohli was increasingly becoming a lot more mature, am not quiet sure; perhaps they should take the arm band of him and just let him focus on his batting.
 
We don't know what the media means by "abused''. Maybe exaggeration and masala added.
 
Kohli felt that Kumble was overstepping his mark. He felt his captaincy was being compromised by Kumble. Despite attempts to sort it it neither was willing to give an inch to the other. Apparently, they were not on speaking terms for six months. Kohli would walk away with a look of disgust on his face whenever Kumble would enter team gatherings and talks. From what I understand all the aggression and snarling came from Kohli who could have had some personal disliking of Kumble.
 
"Kumble waited for Kohli and co to get on the flight to the Caribbean before the disclosure. It gave him valuable 12+ hours to gain public sympathy. He didn't invite the press to make the announcement."- NDTV
What a brilliant move from Jumbo if true. I would rather trust Kumble than Kohli. No wonder Dravid declined the offer back then.
Meanwhile, Sehwag is the front runner for the post now. It would be disaster. Two Delhi hot heads leading and mentoring the team :(
 
Although he seems to have carved out a reputation as a gentleman, my over abiding memory of Kumble is as someone who was prone to childish outbursts, be it throwing the ball at Inzamam's head or a very personal sledge which seemed to rattle Moyo, so imo it's not beyond the realms of possibility that he has played a part in the breakdown in communication.

Personally feel India need a coach who's gonna encourage the fearless/in your face brand of cricket which Kohli wants, rather than the mundane methodical approach Kumble brings

my thoughts exactly

everyone is rushing to pass judgement on Kohli, based on a masala headline... "abused"

i read the entire article, there is no mention of any abuse from Kohli to Kumble
 
Based on what i have observed of Kohli, i will not put it past him to diss, abuse his seniors.
 
Kohli is a terrible captain. I do not think he will ever be anything other than that. All I think of when I think of Kohli's captaincy is him screaming mid-pitch like a spoiled brat after the dismissal of Ahmad Shehzad in their first game of the Champions Trophy.

It is possible that Kumble is the one more at fault in this particular dispute, but Kohli does have a pedigree for rubbing people up the wrong way.
 
For all of Kumble's professionalism how are these stories getting to the media everyday?

Why you are so eager to accept this story as the gospel truth when we know it's most likely masala journalism
 
If this news is true(which I doubt,due to the source) then player power is harming Indian cricket.
 
Kohli is not captaincy material, no one is surprised by any of this.

I wonder whose idea it was to play Ashwin in the Final.

Calculated leaks to favoured journalists by both sides. Kumble pre-empted the response from Kohli and the BCCI through his twitter post. We've already seen certain unnamed BCCI officials telling cricinfo that the team was upset after Kumble criticized a certain player right after the Champions Trophy defeat and how it was unsporting to criticize someone immediately after the team had suffered a harrowing setback and that it showed Kumble lacked empathy.

We will likely continue to see the squalid to and fro disclosure of information that paints each side as honourably patient sufferers while eviscerating the other as the source of all ills in the team. It's not pretty, but each side has their carefully stage managed reputations to protect. It's important for us to realize that no one will be truly innocent in this whole scenario and enjoy the fact that it's someone other than Pakistan that is suffering from such shambles for a change.

Can't be Kumble's if the captain and coach have not been on talking terms and if the team is not listening to the coach. This is all on Kohli unfortunately.
 
Kumble is definitely no saint. What we see today is just a sugar-coated media friendly image that he has created for himself post retirement. In his playing days he was one of the most aggressive Indian cricketer who was never shy of getting under the skin of opposition players and many times without any provocation. There had been many occasions where one would see him losing his temper when he would be whacked around.
 
I'd take this with a huge grain of salt.

Appears like the media is adding its own two cents on top of the story with terms such as "abused."
 
It takes two to make a quarrel. Allathough from outside it appears that it's all Kohli's fault we need to be careful of hasty conclusions before knowing Kohli's side of story. Wonder when the next book will be released.
 
There's only one man who can solve the player power crisis engulfing Indian cricket... :ibutt

That's the problem with such threads. We don't know if he did it, but he is already guilty over here.

If you notice that pathetic news article, it only says a BCCI source has told them (one sentence), the rest of the article is a third person account of Kumble's resignation letter. The most abysmal piece of journalism.

He may have done it, but without hearing his side of the story, we have already deemed him as guilty!

10 Indian cricketers gave negative feedback against Anil Kumble

One of the members of BCCI's three-man Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) met as many as 10 players during the recent Champions Trophy to seek feedback on head coach, and not even one player was in favour of Anil Kumble continuing on the job, mid-day has learned.

Sources also said some players had even stopped following established protocol implemented by Kumble during his reign as coach.

"There were some rules he had put in place from his first tour last year, which were ignored during the Champions Trophy," a source disclosed.

Virat Kohli may have refused to admit that India buckled under pressure against Pakistan in Sunday's Champions Trophy final here at The Oval, but he might be the first to admit that it was the demands of coach Anil Kumble that led to the fallout between the Indian captain and him.

"He was putting too much pressure on the players," a member of the Indian team told mid-day before departing to the West Indies.

Kumble, who quit as head coach on Tuesday, was apparently putting the players under the pump far too much and had 'unrealistic' expectations which created a negative vibe in the dressing room.

It is also understood that when a member of the three-member Cricket Advisory Committee (CAC) met as many as 10 players during the tournament, not a single member was in favour of Kumble continuing as coach.

The cracks appeared to surface during the Champions Trophy when some protocol implemented by Kumble during his reign as coach were not followed by the players. "There were some rules he (Kumble) had put in place from his first tour as coach in the West Indies last year, which were ignored during the Champions Trophy," a source disclosed.

While the source didn't specify the rules, he hinted that Kumble's style of functioning had led to less freedom compared to when Ravi Shastri was in charge as Team Director from 2014 to 2015-16.

It may be recalled that Kumble came into the reckoning at the last moment when Shastri was all set to become coach last year. Reportedly, the former leg-spinner was told to apply for the post by Ganguly.

While it is not known when Kumble told the players about his decision to step down as coach, the fact that batting coach Sanjay Bangar handed out a lot of the instructions during the practice session before the final at The Oval was a strong indicator that Kumble had been side-tracked as early as last week.

Differences with coaches are not unprecedented in Indian cricket. In 1996, Sandeep Patil was sacked as coach after only six months into the job. It was reported then that the players did not approve of Patil, who was replaced by S Madan Lal.

The biggest coach issue concerned Greg Chappell, who had major differences with captain Sourav Ganguly in 2005.

No, but I would double check the source before believing such stories. These could well be clickbait. Kohli is a professional tbh. He loses his cool on field, yes and that too horribly, but I have seldom seen him lose it off the field (in the last couple of years).
 
I am with Kohli on this one . Kumble may be a nice guy but this is new age cricket . He is not cool enough to understand it with his old school ways.
 
For anyone who has watched Kohli over the years, is it really hard to believe that he would abuse someone? This guy has a history of being obnoxious and classless
 
Kumble is a legend. His 10fer vs Pak was mainly due to umpire blunders but he always represented his country with passion.

He's got more than 600 wickets in test cricket iirc.

As much as I dislike Indian cricketers, this is sad. In SC culture, we always respect the elders. And Kohli crossed a line here.

Hopefully, Indians won't select Sehwag as new coach. Their cricket would (potentially) turn into cirque du soleil.
 
i dont see kohli doing that at all masala news flr
sure.. also i dont see sehwag being appointed this would make india go back not forward
 
Honestly I can't see how people are coming to conclusion.

All the judgements are based on how media portrays both these players. We don't know the actual facts that took place.

Kumble is a legend but that doesn't mean that we assume he was in the right and Kohli because of his 'in-your-face' nature must be the culprit. Various reports suggests that it wasn't just Kohli but several team members that didn't take to Kumble's style of coaching.

Results might suggest that team was doing just fine under Kumble but the team did extremely well under Greg Chappell as well but if the atmosphere gets worse, you can see it come to the fore in a way that can prove to be quite costly a la 2007 World cup.

Kumble is no Greg but clearly Kumble wasn't liked by the team members so its a good move and just like the class player he was, he didn't create much fuss or target anyone and left with dignity.

And now that Kohli and team have got what they wanted they have absolutely little to no scope for poor performances. This is something they've brought upon themselves.

"I am the best player in the world. I am the Captain of India, the best, most powerful and richest team in the world. I am already an ATG. I am the icon of Indian cricket. Nobody tells me what to do!"

"I am an ATG, a legend of Indian cricket, taken the most wickets ever by an Indian bowler, 3rd on the list of greatest wicket takers in the history of Test cricket, AND taken 10 wickets in an innings, and that too against Pakistan!
Indian cricket today, and the riches Indian cricketers enjoy, are the fruits of the efforts of ATG Legends like me. I deserve respect!"

And there you have it.
 
One thing is for sure, Kohli has the unanimous backing of the present squad, which is very evident in the way many of the players talk about VK, especially our fast bowlers. So I'd wait till proper news is available.

Maybe this is a case of VK standing up for his team even while knowing that It'd put his image and captaincy on the line. VK ALSO seems like a guy who would do this !

That's something a lot of people forget. We did very well under Greg for a period until the 2007 ouster. Chasing and winning matches under Dravid, some good test victories. Greg was the guy who propped up MSD as a future captian, he identified Raina and Rohit as future talents , back when they were in their late teens. !
 
Can't really comment on who's right between the two as we don't know the facts but Kohli does seem to come across as a man who wants full control. In a way that is ok but in today's world with the media swooping in at every second, you need to make certain compromises. I'm sure Imran Khan wouldn't have survived in this day and age if he went about his business like he used to in the 1980's when he wanted to be the coach, captain, selector. Basically everything. Kohli seems to follow the Imran method but that method will create rifts in today's world.

LOL, you can say that a thousand time out loud to sink this in, whatta feeling, what joy and happiness :-P
 
This has shades of Waqar's era of coaching Pakistan. He used to drive them hard, and wanted to keep the focus on tours on the cricket and nothing else. The difference is that Pakistan were rubbish especially in odi's (with guys like Akmal and Shehzad even protesting the fielding drills and the intensity of the sessions) and this Indian team has won more than they have lost.
I am assuming that Kumble was all work and no play kind of guy who perhaps was not treating the team like adults.
 
why would kumble make such a public exit if something like that didnt happen? theres a difference between being aggressive and being obnoxious, the new age team india verges on being obnoxious

Yes but his ppl management style alienated guys like Tendulkar and Ganguly (especially) and perhaps Sehwag/Harbhajan. They preferred John Wright.
 
Most comments here are: "i beleive kohli is arrogant, hence it must be his fault'
 
So which player was the target of the alleged dressing down handed out by Kumble after the match? My money is on Jadeja!

Only because there is precedent for this. Everybody knows he is thin skinned. He is likely responsible for Harsha Bhogle no longer working in commentary.

The crux of the matter is that some stars of Indian team, mainly MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli and Murali Vijay felt that the Mumbaikar used to ask tricky questions during interviews while his commentary was not India centric during last year's World T20.

His contract with Star Sports wasn't renewed as players reportedly made it clear to BCCI that they won't be interacting with Bhogle in front of the camera in future.

Kohli just wants his friends and yes men in the team.Kumble didnt fall under that category. Sad times ahead for Indian cricket.

Kohli's

According to rule setup by jumble no player can directly walk in to the national side after staying out due to injury.The said player needs to demonstrate his fitness playing at least a match in domestics.It is possible kumble wasn't happy about Ashwin's selection. Also according to rumours he gave some mouthful to one of the bowlers after CT final. This bowler should most likely be Ashwin.
 
Another figure that people arent talking much about is Bunty Sajdeh. He is Kohli's agent and also known to be his best friend. Sajdeh also happens to be rohit sharmas brother in law and Yuvi's close friend and happens to be th agent of lot of current Indian players who are currently Kohli's favourites. All this Kohli deal is extemely murky and reeks or favoritism. Just wait for the Sri Lankan test series and people shouldnt be surpride to find Pujara dropped for the like of sharma again.

Very well could be. Its also open knowledge how kohli was not keen om playing Kuldeep Yadav on the australian series and it happened only on Kumble insisting.
 
Please use common sense people. I bet you didnt even check the source of this report. Dont tell me you believe zeenews. It is always full of crap
 
Apparently Kohli has deleted his welcome tweet to Anil Kumble when latter was chosen as India's coach back in 2016. Dont know the inside story but Indian fans are already missing MSD the captain.

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. This is where BCCI need to step in and crush player power before it gets out of hand. A player no matter how big a star he might be shouldn't be influencing selection decisions.

Absolutely. Kohli needs to be put in place, no one is bigger than the game.
 
Kohli i right. He is an useless coach. If he was good, team India might have better strategy.
 
Clever title. Click bait by Zee News.

Whenever you put Kohli and abuse in the same sentence, it is easier for people to believe.

If most players are against Kumble, then Anil has to go. May be his style is not compatible with the current lot.
 
How can anyone even make an effort to delete a tweet lol? That takes a lot of scrolling.

And then the media guys pick up on it!?
 
When you are a superstar and super player like Kohli u can do whatever you want its a normal thing... he can win you matches alone so he can abuse anyone he wants totally support him do whatever you want man just win matches :kohli:kohli:kohli more power to you !!!

Kohli is a Legend too what is Kumble's role in getting born before then Kohli ??? if Kohli was born 20 years back he would have been the Senior Player.... Most of the people abuse their Bosses but they are seniors but they abuse so it's perfectly fine to Abuse Kumble if Kohli Wants because they are on the same level Game wise Kohli is even ahead of Kumble as a matchwinner.
 
Kohli's success is getting to his head, i am not surprised to see him look down upon many other ex senior players and even give them the vibe that i am a bigger legend and match winner than you.
 
Indian fans are slowly turning against Kohli. Just check out the comments section of any online newspaper today.

Fair to say we have never liked the flash harry types long term.
 
Kohli is saying that Kumble treated the player's like school kid's. He felt a lack of respect that intensified after the recent hammering by Pak. This is the reason Kumble did not go to the Caribbean.
