Kumble, who took over the position of the head coach from Ravi Shastri, is into his last assignment as the cricket governing body of India has invited applications for the respective post. Under Kumble’s tenure team India has won five Test series — West Indies, New Zealand, England, Bangladesh and Australia.
In the history of the tournament, Pakistan has just managed to beat India once, when the Inzamam-ul-Haq led side edged out a three-wicket win over India in 2004.
