Kumble Recalls 'chucking Accusation' That Shifted His Career From Pace To Spin
The Great Indian Cricket Show: The former India captain Anil Kumble recalled how questions over his bowling action as a teenager forced him to abandon pace bowling and unexpectedly embrace leg spin, a decision that would ultimately define his illustrious career.
Kumble revealed that he was primarily a fast bowler while playing school and club cricket before a senior player raised concerns over his action.
"One of the senior players in my club asked my coach to stop me from bowling as he felt I was bending my elbow. I honestly didn’t even realise I was bending my elbow. I was bowling the way that felt natural to me. I was around 13-14 at that time and probably not strong enough,” Kumble said while speaking on The Great Indian Cricket Show on Doordarshan.
