Legendary batsman Rahul Dravid has reacted on Anil Kumble's exit as India head coach saying," the manner in which former teammate Anil Kumble was made to quit his role as Indian team's head coach was unfortunate. Lauding the iconic leg-spinner's immense contribution to Indian cricket, the 44-year-old put forth his displeasure at the way in which the entire episode played out in full public view. Dravid said,"I think the whole thing got played out in the media which is very, very unfortunate for Anil and not fair on him at all. So, what's the reality of it and what happens behind closed doors is not something I'm privy to, so I can't comment directly. But it was definitely an unfortunate episode, especially to someone like Anil who has been an absolute legend of the game, someone who has done more to win Test matches for India than anybody I know. And he had a successful year as coach as well. But the fact is that it should never have played out the way that it did publicly,
