With an empeccable career in both Tests and ODIs, Kumble will always be remembered as the most successful Indian Bowler. He bagged 619 Test and 337 ODI wickets. He is only the 3rd highest wicket taker in Tests after Muralidaran (800) and Shane Warne (708). Wheras, He occupies 9th Position in ODIs.
Kumble holds the record of taking all the 10 Wickets in an Innings, only next to England bowler Jim Laker. He achieved this feat against Pakistan in 1999.
