The Jumbo of Indian cricket team's plans to retire from cricket has not come as a shock as such. As he has been under media and public scrutiny for quite some time now as to "when he would retire?". I feel so much sorry for such a thing has actually happened to a player of Kumble's stature. Anyways, It's good that something actually happened for good when he decided to retire. He is going out of the team with lot of respect and when he was still considered more than a threat to opposition. He is retiring as a potent bowler. No more discussions and no more speculations on his ability. 619 wickets in the longer format of the game of cricket is no joke and as a player most of them can only dream of such a feat! Suresh menon has something to write in his column for Cricinfo and do find it here.
One more final round of applause for a cricketing gaint... :)
Can find more written on him by his peers and others here...
