Leg spinner Anil Kumble holds the record for taking the most wickets in Indian cricket. He took a total of 953 wickets in his international career, which includes Tests, ODIs and T20 Internationals. Kumble was an aggressive bowler and was adept at deceiving batsmen with a mixture of googly and leg spin. He is considered one of India's greatest bowlers.
