What is your take on the fiasco that took place between Anil Kumble and Virat Kohli?

The differences between Kohli and Kumble are Quite uncalled for.

As a world famous Spinner I respect, Kumble. And as an ace young Batsman, I like immensely Virat.

What I want to say is, both should leave aside the differences for the sake of CRICKET.

BCCI should see that things become normal.

Anil Kumble is a gentleman no doubt and as far as BCCI is concerned it has shown that it functions solely for it's own profits without much ethics. So, they would take whatever side suits them ..

BCCI tried its best to stop Kumble from resigning as Coach. Kumble was really disgusted by Kohli's arrogance . As a result, the oncoming WI tour will be without Coach.

As the matters in BCCI are taking different turns and twists every day. It is worth waiting for a couple Of days.

It is very sad to see that Kumble had no choice but to resign due to his difference with Kohli. Kohli, no doubt is a great player and has contributed a lot to Indian cricket but this particular incident only shows that he has become arrogant and success has turned his head. Cricket, is no longer a gentleman's game but has turned into a money spinner for the BCCI which allowed this to happen. Goes to show what idol worship can do to people so young as Kohli that they no longer can respect and pay heed to a senior player who only has the best interests of the team in his heart!

Anil Kumble is the Advani and Virat is the Modi of Indian cricket. The outcome need not surprise.

Does that mean BCCI is the Amit Shah of Indian Cricket?

Very true Kalyani, Kohli is showing his true colors. In the recent Indo Pak match , Pandyan who was the player who gave an all round performance was run out because of the other player Jadheja ..other than hat Kohli and all other performed so badly so I wonder about arrogance . One can imagine what would have happened  to Kohli if they had won 

Kohli should learn how to play in a team. cricket is a Team  Game.

Kohli is not in form for sometime now and like a spoilt brat does not want to be told about it. Shastri also has a hand in this drama it seems.

If Kohli is not in form, how the selectors selected him. Another player should have been selected. Ravi Shastri is no way connected with this affair.

Are you kidding me? A player who just reclaimed the spot of the No.1 ODI Batsman in the world should've been dropped from the team? He has so much passion for the game and for his country.

Please don't comment if you don't follow cricket at all.

Definitely, Kohli should have been dropped. Instead the selectors took his past glory in to consideration. For this the selectors were fooled.

Dont forget the shaming defeat in the hands of Pakistan in the Champions trophy

It would be grateful if Anil Kumble reconsiders his decision. BCCI is now I'm a position to take a proper decision at the right time. I think it would be better if Anil Kumble continues his job. Virat Kohli plays a vital role in our team. But while we are playing for a country,  he should proceed with the team. Teamwork is needed all the time. Individual worship shouldn't be there anytime.

That is a pertinent point. BCCI should take initiative to settle the differences between Kumble and Kohli. Both are needed for this country in general and Cricket in particular.

IPL.....What are you talking about? 

Please read it as Champions Trophy. Regrets for the mistake

Past Glory???

I'll tell you what. Go to Google. Type ICC ODI Batsmen ranking. Read the name on the top of the list. Then come back here and correct your statements. 

Google ? What for ? I Know Virat Kohle rifpght from his early days. But that is not the point here. The so called No ODI Batsman why he was out for an insignificant score. And he is the Skipper of tht Team.

Now, after this, come here and say that you were mistaken

You echo my viewpoint and sentiment. The worst part is, the BCCI gave more importance to Kohli and ignored Kumble. Remember how Ganguly was ignored and insulted by Greg Chappel, a foreign coach, and then the BCCI ignored its own player and captain but favoured Chappell. This time Kohli is the rising sun so he got more importance over Kumble who has retired long ago. The whole system is ridiculous. Chappell came and harmed Indian cricket but the BCCI kept quiet. This time again Kohli who is acting too smart may harm the Indian cricket as whole but is getting indulgence from the authorities, which is unacceptable. His arrogance will definitely harm the Indian side and to some extent, I think Ravi Shastri is playing his cards from behind.

Only one match doesn't describe a player. Sachin also used to fail sometimes. Doesn't mean they would kick him out of the team.

God. It's like explaining to a 6 year old. Go drink your milk and stop commenting on cricket players who've achieved so much through their hard work that they don't need to hear critics with no knowledge about the sport.
