he may be a great leg spinner looking at the final stats but he is just another ordinary thinking person. he is talking abt Aussie series for which he is not even the captain so that selectors take notice and make him captain for that series too. is he so insecure? first let him even do captaincy for a single day of his life and then he can speak what he wants to. look at how he immediately said okay when captaincy was offered to hima s if he was yearning for the power all these years. it requires a great cricketer and extraordinary thinking human like sachin to give up test captaincy position offered to him on a platter by his own state people who are ruling indian cricket now just so that younger players can get the opportunity. there's a sea of difference between how a great thinking cricketer like sachin thinks and an ordinary thinking cricketr like Kumble....

Om shanthi, and it also requires only ordinary thinking people like you to come to such a conclusion. The "great" cricketer was offered captaincy twice before, he took it immediately and what did he do first? brought back kambli without reason. The results were there for everybody to see. Now you claim that he gave up captaincy for a younger player. Can you prove it? He was just scared..

Actually Kambli was brought in by Azhar and then brought back by Ganguly not Sachin. In regards to Om Shanthi's point, Kumble talking about taking on Aus, there is nothing wrong. He may not be a captain but that does not mean he cannot express his opinion?
