Anil Kumble quits as cricket coach

MUMBAI: Anil Kumble has stepped down as India coach after falling out with skipper Virat Kohli, a top source in the country’s cricket board said on Tuesday. Kumble’s original contract expired with the team’s Champions Trophy campaign, but the former captain was tipped to get an extension after enjoying a successful run during his year in charge. The Board of Control for Cricket in India invited applications for the role last month and Kumble had re-applied for the same.
