Even though Kumble hails from a country full of spinner friendly pitches, he was never a larger spinner of the ball. He spins the ball too little. But any way in cricket, be it test or one-day, wicket matters most. He got a lot of wickets but hardly can any one remember whether he had won matches or not. He won matches for India but very few. He never concentrated on other aspects of cricket like batting and fielding. I dont think he is the greatest spinner india has ever produced. We have more talented spinners than kumble during the last century. And bhajji is definitely far far far away from all of them. I would say that Kumble is an average bowler who had never created or set any kind of hype or expectations on him like Sachin, Saurav, Sehwag and Dravid.
