TIL Desk Sports/ India opening batsman Murali Vijay is a big fan of newly appointed head coach Anil Kumble and says the players have got a golden opportunity to learn from the great leg-spinner. “My first Test match was his last Test match and actually I did not spend lot of time with him, but I have been a great fan of him as an youngster,” he told reporters on the second day of the India camp at the KSCA stadium here today. “It is a great opportunity for youngsters to talk to him about cricket and learn from him and move forward.
So it will be a great time for us,” the opening batsman said further. Asked what he makes out of Kumble-Virat Kohli combination, Vijay said it would be early to make such a comment but expects to have great 12 months ahead for Indian cricket. “I can’t talk anything ahead of time. It will be too early to comment on that, but it is going to be great 12 months for us as a team – that much I can guarantee you. We are going to be up for it and we just want to be best in coming 12 months,” he said.
Replying to a query, Vijay said the team had a great time with Ravi Shastri when he was Team Director and the players are certain to learn many tricks from Kumble. “We had a great time with Ravi Bhai, and Anil Bhai has picked up for now, and hopefully we can have good time with him and learn lot of things from him. He has been an unbelievable cricketer for India,” he said.
