It was back in the late June of 2016 that the former Indian leggie was announced as the new Team India coach. Around 57 applications had reached the BCCI headquarters then. While Ravi Shastri was considered the favourite for, having been there for the last one year, it was Kumble who was given the opportunity by the deciding committee. Over the term of 12 months, Virat Kohli and his army battled 17 Test matches on home soil, where they won 12, drew four and lost one against the Aussies. Under Kumble's mentorship, the home team registered series wins against five nations – West Indies, New Zealand, England, Bangladesh and Australia – to retain their No. 1 spot in ICC Test rankings.
