Yesterday was marked as a special occasion for Indian cricket fraternity. Former Team India’s Head Coach and captain Anil Kumble have turned 47. The whole cricket buffs have been pouring in sweet comments, posts and fan-made things wishing the brief-coach on the social media.

Though his career as the coach was disrupted amidst the quite amusingly winning streak of the Indian team, there’s always a soft corner on either side and that least stained his name and fame. However, there is one tweet that appeared little tweaked and twitched about Kumble, and it is from BCCI.

Aside from this, there is always this void of the incompetent friendship of Kumble and Kohli. They both were never on good terms. The way Kumble has signed off is the valid proof of this. But, it would have been good if there was a proper tweet from Kohli on the former coach’s birthday which didn’t happen at all.

The outrage from the netizens wasn’t confined to the BCCI, but captain Virat Kohli too was on fans’ radar after he did not greet the former India coach on the social media handles. There is always a possibility of Kohli having conveyed his wishes to Kumble in a more personal manner which fans aren’t aware of, however, they questioned the Delhi batsman’s silence, because he actually wished Kumble during the same day in 2016.

Check out the tweets from various corners of the Internet, after all, one cannot miss anything when it is about one of the best coaches and best captain,

So, Virat Kohli has the time and energy to wish and visit Arijit Singh, but he doesn’t have the courtesy to wish Anil Kumble.

Virat Kohli has the time to play football, appear on tv show. But no time to wish Anil Kumble on his birthday. What a shame!
