For me, opposition is just another opposition.

Frankly, I never thought that I would represent my country one day.

The reason why people love T20 is the sixes and fours.

You can't take any team lightly.

Nobody wants to really play bad cricket.

A sporting track doesn't always mean that it will only have grass on it.

The cameras used to pass by me; now they're stopping for me.

What captains want is players who move well in the field.

Unless you know the individual, it's very difficult to advise that individual as to what he needs to do.

I love my country. I tell my wife she is only the third most important thing after my country and my parents, in that order.

I like to make statements on the field.

I have faced challenges during the initial stages of my career, and I see Run Adam as filling a vacuum.

Strong characters are needed in the game.

The biggest problem is when a player asks a captain why he is not playing but does not want an honest answer.

When I'm at home, I love playing action-oriented computer games.

One of my theories is to be captain on the field and off the field, you need to totally enjoy each other's company. I don't like discussing cricket off the field.
