5 best spells by Anil Kumble: India's leading wicket taker

3. 4/25, v South Africa, Mumbai, 1996

Kumble played an integral role in India’s victory over South Africa in the final of the Titan Cup against South Africa. Defending 220 India needed something magical from its ace spinner. And didn’t he deliver in style. He first removed Gary Kirsten for 23 and Jonty Rhodes for 6 and later dismissed Pat Symcox for 46 when it seemed an inspired rearguard action could seal South Africa a win. India eventually won by 35 runs and Jumbo was named Man of the Match.
