Our biggest strength has always been the fans. All over, wherever we have gone, CSK has got support.

I don't think I will ever make my all-time greatest India team. You cannot compare one era with another, as they will be different.

Spirit of cricket is not about just the guidelines provided.

After the first ball is bowled, it's only chaos. What you are trying to do is you're trying to manage the chaos. It's not like a script that happens.

My wife wants me to eat fish; she says it is delicious. But I don't like fish, so that is that.

I love to be in the moment. I love to analyse things a bit.

For me, it's important to build good partnerships rather than score centuries. Once, you have those partnerships, you will also get centuries.

In tennis ball cricket, even it's hit from the toe of the bat, the ball still travels a lot, but in normal cricket, it has to be the middle part of the bat, so it requires a lot of work.

You learn a lot more when you're going through a rough period compared to the good times when everything goes your way.

When you help sportspersons achieve their full potential, you propel the sporting quotient of the entire country.

I am touched by the admiration and ovation I receive from CSK fans, which will always remain close to my heart.

I live for the moment - not the future, not the past.

The era of playing aggressive cricket and to have the mid-on up is gone. You now try to read the mindset of a batsman.

If you keep winning, you don't know the areas you've to work hard.

I never allow myself to be pressured.

If you're playing against an aggressive side, you need to play an aggressive game.

I believe in giving more than 100% on the field, and I don't really worry about the result if there's great commitment on the field. That's victory for me.
