Is this the 'xing' Kumble was talking about?

After being given the test captaincy, Anil Kumble said that it (captaincy) would add 'xing' to his career. No doubt Kumble is one of the best as an individual player, but somewhere down the line his captaincy is not upto the expectation. 2 won out of 9 tests captained. Is this what is expected from the 2nd best test team in the world and its captain? Is this the 'xing' Kumble was talking about?
