Do you think Anil Kumble was wrong in playing the first test against Australia?

Anil Kumble was not 100% fit going into the first test against Australia. He still choose to play the test knowing that Indians were going into the test with 4 regular bowlers. On the 4th day when India needed wickets he was not able to bowl. With 3 bowlers Indians were left frustrated for wickets. What is your view on this one?

I feel he was definitely wrong in playing the test match. As he was not fully fit, he could not give his 100% in the match. This cost India a possible victory. Had he decided before the start of the game of not playing, India could have taken an extra spinner and things might have been different. His playing in the team reduced a bowling option for us. I hope this should not happen in the forthcoming Mohali test.

I think India needs more allrounders. This will help India to get more wickets. I also think Anil Kumble was not 100% fit in the test against Australia. I think India should have picked another bowler instead of Anil Kumble.
