Former Indian captain got angry after losing the series, gave special advice to reach the final of WTC

Anil Kumble Slams India Team: Former Indian captain Anil Kumble is not happy with the team's performance against New Zealand in the Pune Test. Kumble has criticized the Indian players for their performance against the Kiwi team. New Zealand was successful in winning the Test series in India for the first time in the history of Test cricket. Speaking on Geo Cinema, Kumble said that if India has to reach the final of the ICC World Test Championship, it will have to work on its strategy.

Let us tell you that the Indian team has lost the Test series at home after 12 years. The dominance that Team India had established on its home soil for so many years has now come to an end. Kumble lashed out at the Indian batsmen and believes that they need to improve their game.

Along with this, Kumble also praised the format of the World Test Championship and said that because of this every Test match becomes very important. He said, I think this is the beauty of WTC. I know the series is over for India, but then every Test match is equally important. Obviously he has made it difficult for himself. At the beginning of the series, we talked about getting five wins to reach the championship final. But now if you need four wins in the next six matches, it becomes even more difficult. It will not be easy to win five matches in Australia against New Zealand and then Australia at the Wankhede Stadium.

Kumble further said, I know that India has performed very well in the last two series played in Australia, but again it is very difficult for India to qualify for the final of the WTC. The Men in Blue really need to step up their game. The batting has been disappointing. There will be challenges all the time in bowling also. The reason why India is on top is that Indian bowlers have been able to take 20 wickets. The batsmen need to unite and score runs.
