New Delhi: Former cricketers including Michael Vaughan and Bishan Singh Bedi today said Anil Kumble stepping down as head coach was a big loss to the Indian team.
"India are losing a Great man in @anilkumble1074 ... realty hope he stays in some role .... far too good a bloke to lose ... #India," tweeted Vaughan.
Former India spinner Bishan Bedi tweeted: "Gratitude has obviously been thrown out of the window by whoever raising 'revolt' against India's giant @anilkumble1074! Loser's Indian Cricket of course!" Former India opener Aakash Chopra said the situation could have been handled better.
"It (the coach selection process) should have been done after the home season and not just before the Champions Trophy. It could have been handled better but that is how the cookie has crumbled," he said.
Kumble today stepped down from his position after a widely-speculated feud with captain Virat Kohli, marking a bitter end to a highly successful tenure.
The team did well under Kumble in the past 12 months, winning Test series in the West Indies (2-0) before winning at home against New Zealand (3-0), England (4-0), Bangladesh (1-0) and Australia (2-1).
The team also won eight ODIs and lost five during the 46- year-old's tenure.
