Kumble quits

-

Anil Kumble has stepped down as Indian cricket coach after falling out with skipper Virat Kohli, a top source in the country’s cricket board says. Kumble’s original contract expired with the team’s Champions Trophy campaign, but the former captain was tipped to get an extension after enjoying a successful run during his year in charge. Indian media has reported that Kohli found Kumble’s brand of coaching a bit too assertive and their relationsh­ip was beyond repair.
