Anil Kumble created history in the Australia vs India third test by becoming the third bowler in cricket to capture 600 Test wickets. You know that he is one of the top 3 spinners playing cricket today. The second test of Australia vs India belonged to Anil Kumbe but this time, his performance came in batting not in bowling.  

Anil Kumble scored 87 runs in the first innings of India. 87 runs is not a big deal but it came at a very important time. India was struggling at that time.

The Hindu wrote:

The skipper himself was watchful and opportunistic: his telescopic reach and springy stride kept periling balls out; but, he descended on half-volleys, first front leg, eager and awkward, then bat, loopy and just fast enough, finally back leg, sinking to turf and completing the cover-drive pose. Once, Kumble forced Clark down the long straight boundary — despite, the ill-fitting chest guard and the high-waisted trousers, he looked, in that instant, a supreme batsman.

Anil Kumble must feel very happy tonight. He did his job in batting. Tomorrow, he will have to show his skill as a bowler. Well, India should not lose from this point in this test. Even if India can draw this test, many Indian fans will be happy. Some credit then would surely go to captain Anil Kumble.
