Kumble backs Dhoni
BANGALORE, June 30: Indian Test captain Anil Kumble endorsed his ODI counterpart Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s view that back-to-back matches are taking a toll on the players.
“It’s never easy to play back-to-back one-day games,” Kumble told reporters when his reaction was sought on Dhoni’s comments. “I have done that in my (one-day) career. It’s quite tough and demanding on the players”, he said.
Dhoni on Saturday lambasted the gruelling Asia Cup schedule after his side swamped Bangladesh by seven wickets to record their third successive win in Karachi.—Agencies
