Kumble inducted into ICC Hall of Fame

Melbourne: Former India captain Anil Kumble was on Sunday inducted into the International Cricket Council Hall of Fame at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Kumble is just the fourth Indian to be included in the elite group, joining Sunil Gavaskar, Kapil Dev and Bishan Bedi.
Australian legend Betty Wilson was also inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame on Sunday, along with Kumble.
“It’s an honour to be inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame,” Kumble said.
“Indeed, it will be a great moment of pride to receive it during the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground I deem it as a great privilege to join the list of great cricketing luminaries,” he added. Kumble played 132 Tests for India, capturing 619 wickets and became the second man in history to take 10 wickets in an innings when he dismantled Pakistan in 1999 to finish with figures of 10-74.
