CORRECTION PLEASE
"Kumble is the second highest wicket taker in test cricket"

No he isn't - Murali is I think


 * Kumble is the second highest wicket taker among leg spinners and that's what the article says. Gnanapiti 15:20, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Kumble Jaw
If someone owns a video clip of Kumble bowling with a broken jaw, please share it with everyone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.32.76.89 (talk) 07:11, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

There are a lot of photos of Kumble bowling with a broken jaw, I don't know how to uplaod pictures to wikipedia but any one of these photos would make a fine addition for the article in my opinion: http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&um=1&sa=1&q=kumble+broken+jaw&btnG=Search+Images&aq=f&oq= 219.74.5.186 (talk) 10:36, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

wild life
his fondness for wildlife should be mentioned. quite uncommon and therefore notable, i believe. one more ref. -- Car Tick  03:07, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Tables
Tables on this page are really messed up everyone comes and makes them according to their liking but there is a thing called MOS. We need to follow that only. I will certainly remove forced width from every table because right now they are going off the page any comments.--Vyom25 (talk) 14:07, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Going off the page? I don't think so.
 * I have changed it because an article about another player which is FA didn't had collapse. Collapse is less likely used in articles as we have to make it easy for the viewers to look. The article I m talking about is: Adam Gilchrist → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 14:25, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comment, I am also opposed to collapsible tables. The format for table you have put slightly goes outside the window. You can remove or change width for the table or fix it as you like. Using colors is also not good option. Initially tables had colors but I am not big fan of it. You are not having that problem because maybe you are using wider screen display or I don't know but there is a very slight portion going of the page. It is slight though.--Vyom25 (talk) 14:34, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * yeah this is good now. For the man of the series table looks perfect.--Vyom25 (talk) 14:36, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I was fixing another also but got busy, sorry for being late. I have done it over other place also. → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 14:40, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries.--Vyom25 (talk) 14:44, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Looks perfectly fine now. One thing what we can do is widen the table. &mdash; Vensatry (Ping me)  15:32, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree with Vensatry. It appears a bit odd with section headings in the left corner and the table centred. Don't know what the MoS says though. B Positive  (talk)   15:56, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I have made it on left and it looks much better to me. Your views are also welcome. → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 16:20, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Retirement section
The retirement section in the article talks about his retirement only in the last paragraph. The initial paragraphs talk about him being appreciated by some editors. Do these things go into the retirement section before mentioning that he retired? Please comment. B Positive  (talk)   16:00, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 16:11, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Good move. But still, read the first para of that section. As a reader, I'm not able to link it with the last paragraph by any means. The first para is for the period January 2008 whereas he took retirement in November 2008! Somehow, the text before retirement is not building up towards his retirement. B Positive   (talk)   17:04, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks good now :) B Positive   (talk)   10:38, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Image problem
We are really in lack of images if we are considering a GA lately. Please can anyone upload at least 3 images about him while playing so that it can pass GA. There is a special check of it in a GA so with only 1 image (excluding infobox) we cannot get through. I m trying in this but require help? → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 16:35, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the no. of images are sufficient. Lack of images shouldn't be a problem. Read criteria #6 of WP:GA? &mdash; Vensatry (Ping me)  11:17, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Style
Can anyone find refs for the last paragraph in that section as I m having trouble in finding them? → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 07:08, 20 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Now have a look.--Vyom25 (talk) 11:35, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Superb! Thank you for that :) → TheSpecialUser TalkContributions* 12:32, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Mention about his team-mates
"Two of his college team-mates—M.P. Vivek and Rashid Mohsin—went on to have scintillating but short-lived first class careers." This is not written from a NPOV. Is this piece of information really required in the personal life section? Please comment. B Positive  (talk)   18:34, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think so. They were just friends and not so relevant. It creates the problem of "focus" which was one of the major problems for this to not get listed.  →TSU tp* 18:41, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅ -- B Positive  (talk)   18:44, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
