The wicket of Chaminda Vaas [Images] in the second innings of the Delhi Test gave Kumble his 10th wicket in the match on Wednesday.
This was the eighth occasion when Kumble picked up 10 or more wickets in a match, easily the best for India.
Fellow teammate Harbhajan Singh [Images] with three instances is at the second place. In fact only three bowlers in entire Test history have taken more 10-wicket hauls than Kumble as is evident from the following table:
