Growing up watching players like BS Chandrasekhar, and a contemporary of Muttiah Muralitharan and Shane Warne, the Karnataka leg-spinner Anil Kumble has etched his name indelibly in the world of cricket. Though not as charismatic, or lethal, as the the other three, Kumble nevertheless emerged as one of the most successful Indian spinners ever. Having started playing for Karnataka at the age of 19, Kumble made his Test debut against England in 1990, and during a long and eventful career, played more than 130 Test matches, and crafted many victories for India. He became an integral part of the Indian ODI team during the early 1990s and came up with some of the best performances during this time; which included his six for 12 against the West Indies. The year 1996 proved very successful for him as he was selected for the World Cup. The shiniest feather in his cap was added in 1999 when he was playing a Test match against Pakistan, and dismissed all 10 batsmen in a single innings, thereby becoming only the second player to achieve this feat, after Jim Laker of England. Ganesha analyses his Horoscope to find out how much the stars helped Kumble in his glorious cricketing career.
