11. Anil Kumble

Anil Kumble was the greatest leg-spinner to have ever played for India. Kumble was Ganguly's trump card with the ball in spin-friendly conditions. The Karnataka leggie wasn’t a classical leg-spinner but relied more on his subtle variations to outfox the batsmen.
Kumble was quick through the air and troubled the batsman with his flippers and topspin deliveries. He had a deceptive googly which he mixed up well with his stock leg spin. He was a great student of the game and his analytical mind was well used by Indian team management to craft their game strategies.
