    "editor1": "<p><strong>New Delhi, Oct 11:<\/strong>&nbsp;Former Indian skipper Anil Kumble has been appointed as the head coach of Kings XI Punjab for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>According to a report in ESPNcricinfo, Kumble will also be put in charge of &quot;all cricket-related affairs&quot; of the team for the foreseeable future. With the signing, Kumble becomes the only Indian coach in the IPL.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The report further stated that Kumble would make a presentation to the team management on his plans for the road ahead on October 19.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kumble, who is India&#39;s highest wicket-taker in Test cricket, will be replacing Mike Hesson who in August parted ways with the Punjab-based franchise after one season at helm with them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Even though Hesson had signed a two-year contract, the 44-year-old left the role midway with the Punjab-based franchise, who finished sixth in this year&#39;s edition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kings XI will be the third IPL team Kumble will be involved with. He started out as a player - and later captain - with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in 2008. He was then appointed as a mentor by the same team, before joining Mumbai Indians in a similar role in 2013.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In June 2016, he was appointed as the head coach of the Indian men&#39;s team by BCCI for a period of one year but resigned due to &quot;untenable&quot; differences with captain Virat Kohli.<\/p>\r\n",
