I think Anil kumble is better leg spiner than shane warne.Warne has good team and storng team for taking wickets.Anil kumble did his work alone and sometime our team does not very well he made magic and give us victory.He also had more than 500 wickts and he tooks 10 wickets in single inn.

I think shane warne is a very good player but still i will vouch for kumble as he is a very good bowler and has taken 500 wickets and thats a herculen task and is still bowling better and better.

I agree with you that he is one of the best and greatest bowler of indian team and he done excellent job without much help of other bowler.I think no indian bowler can broken his record as top wicket taker for India.

There are a lot of factors to be taken into view here. Shane Warne plays in a team where he is the main spinner (the rest are merely for support). Anil kumble plays in a team where there have been many good spinners to compete with him. The indian team sometimes drops kumble in favour of harbhajan, because he is equally competent. But Australia cannot drop shane warne, simply because there is nobody to fill the gap.

India does not depend so much on Kumble as much as Australia depends on Shane warne in the spin department. Due to this Kumble does not get enough support and confidence to really prove himself. Considering this point, i would say, Kumble is equally good as, if not better than Shane Warne.

good point you made there, and i think warne wanted to address the issue by retiring from ODI. also with his 1 year ban for taking drugs, australia had to look elsewere.

brad hogg was tipped to be a potential filler

not sure what happened with him

i think kumble is better because when he bowls he is hard 2 pick with his variations such as the scrambled seam and warne has not taken 10 wickets in an innings

I honestly think warne is better. He was the one who set the bar of spinning to such a high standard. He was once called the "God of spinning" too. But kumble is no less. Having unbreakable records is no easy thing. Both are the best, very difficult to judge. But i go with warne.

Kumble

He is taken 10 wickets in an innings against Pak Razz

i remember that 10 wickets - it was great personal achievement - but what does that say against the rest of the team!!

That is a good point. Australia have such good pace bowlers that always pick up a few early wickets. When Warne comes on to bowl there is probably 4 wickets down already and the maximum wickets he can take is 6. When Kumble comes to bowl, he dosent have much competition to take wickets so he ends up taking more.

You cannot compare Shane Warne to any legspinner, he probably was the best legspinner of all time.

If we talk about leg spin, then Warne is better and more dangerous than Kumble. But Warne not only operates on only bowling skill, he adds the pressure tactics also. Kumble seems to be a very humble guy but having a great talent. So he being the gentleman has done more than a great job.

I also don't know how much agressive is he. But from the point of view of a leg-spinner I think Warne should be called as an aurthodox leg-spinner while Kumble's leg spin is little different.

kumble used to be a pace bowler as a junior i heard, and then he changed to spin. that is why he bowls from about an 11-12 o'clock position, compared to normal spinners who bowl from 9-11 o clock (at release of ball)
