Virat Kohli and Anil Kumble

India captain Virat Kohli has deleted his year-old tweet welcoming Anil Kumble's appointment as the national cricket team coach, further exposing the
bitterness that had crept in. Kohli deleted the post on the microblogging site close on the heals of the spin legend's decision to resign from his post due to "untenable" differences with the captain.

Soon after Kumble's appointment, Kohli had tweeted on June 23 last year, greeting him with a smiley and expressed hopes of a great future under his guidance. "Heartiest welcome to @anilkumble1074 Sir. Look forward to your tenure with us. Great things in store for Indian Cricket with you ??" Kohli had posted on his official twitter handle, which he has deleted now. Kumble, who was given a one-year tenure, quit from his position as the head coach after the final of the Champions Trophy.
