Former skipper of Indian Cricket Team, Sourav Ganguly was lavish in his praise for veteran leg-spinner Anil Kumble, who made his debut as Test captain today against Pakistan at the Ferozshah Kotla stadium here.

?Kumble?s first day as captain was fantastic. He handled the bowlers and the field placements very well,? Ganguly said while addressing the media at the end of the opening day?s play of the first Test match.
