Twitter reacts to Anil Kumble's appointment as India coach
Ending a dramatic and elaborate process, that resembled the nail-biting finishes of a T20 game, the BCCI on Thursday announced the next coach of the Indian national team. Twitter patiently waited more than an hour for the announcement today before the news was out - It is Jumbo.
Finally, after one hour and 15 minutes

Harsha knows best
Anil Kumble will be an excellent organiser and a top team man. And knowing him, he will respect the fact that the captain runs the team.

To have a coach who cud play wid broken jaw wud be an inspiration fr guys in dressing room.
IMO BCCI should've given @anilkumble1074 3-year tenure. Show faith, give him time to build up an ethos he believes will deliver results...

Fitting that Kumble's first assignment takes him to the West Indies, where his grit, spirit & determination was most memorably displayed

A three-year contract would have been better. But Anil Kumble, who relishes a challenge, can make a powerful & progressive impact in a year.

The unlucky 56
One 'expert' says "it will be awkward for the other 56 rejected applicants..."

Sure... let's appoint 57 coaches like Mumbai Indians?!

Shastri is back....... in the commentary box. Dear lord!
Anil Kumble is the new coach of Indian Cricket team. The worst thing is Ravi Shastri is going to return to Commentary box.

The nation wants to know!
But does Subramaniyan Swamy likes Anil Kumble?
— Anand akela (@Upooorv) June 23, 2016
So, Anil Kumble to be the coach of Indian Cricket team. Now that he'd be free, we can appoint Ravi Shastri as the next RBI governor.

Turning tracks.....
Kumble's first-year as coach on turning tracks at home should be a breeze
— Ehtesham Hasan (@ehtesham_toi) June 23, 2016
One year is fine. We know what happens when you get a three-year term in India!
So much done just to appoint head coach for ONE year? That's all? Nice. #BCCI #Kumble

The Jawbreaker
Congrats Anil Kumble if the buzz is true. Please break Ishant Sharma's jaw manually to instil some line and length discipline.
