Kumble served as the head coach of the Indian cricket team for nearly a year before resigning from the post after India’s defeat against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy final in England in June 2017.

After his resignation, the ace spinner posted a letter on Twitter and Facebook saying he had to take this step owing to ‘untenable’ differences with skipper Virat Kohli.

Kumble was succeeded by Ravi Shastri, a favourite of Kohli, as the head coach of the side.
