The BCCI top brass had an inkling that all was not well but they were taken aback when they came to know that captain Virat Kohli and chief coach Anil Kumble were not in talking terms for the "last six months". 

Another important thing that has come out in the open was that the Chief Advisory Committee, comprising Sachin Tendulkar,Sourav Ganguly and VVS Laxman, also didn't straightaway give the green light to Kumble's extension. 

"There had been reports that the CAC had okayed Kumble's extension. They had okayed his extension but with a rider. They had said that Kumble should be retained provided all pending issues are resolved," a senior BCCI official, who was present in London during the whole episode, told PTI. 

 

Post the ICC Champions Trophy final, there were three separate meetings at the Indian team's hotel. 

The first was where Kumble met the BCCI top brass and members of CAC followed by Kohli meeting them. 

 

 

 

 

 

The last and the most "eventful" meeting was when Kohli and Kumble were made to sit across the table. The talks failed completely as there was no communication. 

"The two had stopped talking to each other since December when the England Test series got over. There were problems but it was like shocking that the two didn't have any proper communication for the past six months. On Sunday evening after the final, they were made to sit across table and they both agreed that it's not working out." 

When asked what was the problem, the source said: "When we spoke to Anil separately and specifically asked him if there's any problem, he said he has 'no problems with Virat'. He was also told about the specific areas where Kohli has reservations about his functioning, while Anil said these were non-issues." 

The official sounded helpless. 

"Look, if one of the two protagonists feel that there are issues which seemed to be non-issue to the other one, only these two can then sort out. Once they sat across the table, both realised after coming out that it has gone beyond repair. Anil's tickets were booked for Barbados. His wife was also supposed to join him but he knew it was over," the official added. 

Asked if he could be more specific, the official said: "Let's put it that Virat felt that Anil is entering an area which was his domain. For Anil, who has been a decorated player and an India captain, he has his own beliefs and ideas but the final call always stays with the captain," he said.

 

The entire thing is staggering.They werent talking for six months What the heck ?

 

We let them to lead us to Champions trophy in such a mess.

 

Why didn't one of them come of out with the issue or atleast try to sort it one way or other once the Australia series was ended .

 

Ridiculous from everyone involved

Weren't they on the same page when the Brainfade drama was going on? Just 3-4 months back.

 

The aftermath of it was pretty cringeworthy though....The Aussies holding their shoulders was like 3rd grade taunts and Kohli responded equally with similar immature taunts....the whole thing looked like Kindergarteners fighting.

 

Then  Rahane doing well as captain and the Kuldeep Yadav Saga

 

Is there a pattern here?

We are becoming the padosis with this nonsense drama. It's better to get rid of both coach and captain and put someone more mellow as captain and coach.

I remember Shekar Gupta (Former Indian express editor) saying they fell out because Kumble failed to defend Kohli during the brainfade saga.

 

But this puts the timeline way beyond that.

WOW!!!

Both come out looking bad.

If they were not on talking terms...why did kumble not inform someone?

How can he brush aside issues as non issues when it had lead to such a sad state.

 

 

[Tendu_10]

why are we regressing n turning into internal fighting clowns like padosis.

 

kohli bringing punjabi mentality to team india too.

I think kohli should also be punished for putting the team through this nonsense.

How can they not talk ? How did they manage? 

This is worse than saas bahu drama.

Wth was bcci doing???

[beetle]

Wow...then what was the **** about kumble and kohli asking for a raise and kumble wanting extra money for the skipper?

 

How did that happen if they were not talking? That was just last month.

Indian cricket has officially descended to circus status. No wonder we lost a home test to O Keefe and an ICC final to Pakistan. 

[Yoda-esque]

Typical mentality

Really not much BCCI can do if coach and captain are at loggerheads.

Imagine ICF posts if Dhoni was captain

"It was learnt that COA were only made aware of the differences when they spoke separately to Kohli and Kumble on the day of the IPL final."

Ipl final!!!!COA was aware of it then???

[Cricketics]

if Kohli is wrong, he should resign too or his captaincy should be taken away.

 

If there is just misunderstanding then we should just continue as is and hire Tom Moody and assess Kohli's captaincy tenure with him for next 6-8 months and see how its going.

Agree...but something should have been done earlier.How was the team functioning without communication between captain and coach?

 

Why did kumble not walk out earlier? 

Money? 

Why did he reapply for coach position when he is on such bad terms with kohli? 

 

[Laaloo]

Anyone knows when Kumble stopped taking pictures with his camera? IIRC he was taking it in Australia series. If we figure out when he stopped, we can figure out when they stopped talking lol

Nous article. It is impossible. They werent talking when playing cricket.

[wanted_desi]

Its time for Kohli to Resign. BCCI should ask him to resign from post, things aren't looking good for Indian team with leader like that. We are turning into Pakistan. Need someone with a stable brain to lead the side not an immature guy.
