India should be more flexible with overseas Test 11's, says Kumble

Anil Kumble, the former leader of India, said that while the team has quality bowlers, their progress to be monitored season before the season, and there must be a flexible approach to select XIs when on tour.

The performance of the Indian bowlers have come in the last round to Australia under heavy criticism, Campbell said, "is justified some portion of cash," but he added that the bowlers ability to adapt to the longer form has to be taken into consideration when selecting teams.

He said, Kumble, the highest wicket taking India in Test and ODI cricket: "We have the quality of the bowlers, it's just trying to see who can adapt to the shape of the test and then choose the best four bowlers who you think can capture 20 wickets, this was also an issue. "

He said the question that is always raised on the eve of a simple test match - how are you going to get 20 wickets? Said, but now, in some cases, are the answer is complex: "We have gone to this theory of three seamers and rotor one moment and sit on a plane that travels more than seven hours - this is the mentality ... If you have 20 wickets and will come with two spinners and two fast bowlers, so be it. If it was with three spinners and fast bowler and one I do not mind it. "

He cited the example of the Adelaide Test, where the track is known to favor the racket and help spinners than halfway through the test, and India went in with one spinner - newcomer, Karen Sharma. Campbell asked, "So who got wickets for Australia then? If you look at the top two bowlers, was one spinner and fast bowler one." The Australian off spinner Nathan Lyon top wicket taking the series' with 23 wickets.

He said that in the last series Australia played before the tour of India, "Although the circumstances were different ... won two unknown series to Pakistan spinners. Without Michael Clarke on the batting line up was inexperienced."
