New Delhi, April 22: Former India opener Gautam Gambhir has named former teammate Anil Kumble as the best captain he played under during his time with the national team. Gambhir acknowledged the feats of other great skippers like Sourav Ganguly and Mahendra Singh Dhoni but placed Kumble right at the very top.

The cricketer-turned-politician believes if Kumble had led Team India for a longer period, he would have broken every captaincy records.
