Cricket is very simple... you play till you can sustain.

If you play good cricket, a lot of bad things get hidden.

I think pride is more important sometimes than making money.

The biggest test for any cricketer in England is the weather.

Sports should not become routine. It should be about passion.

I never said, 'I wouldn't help a cricketer if he approaches me.'

Osho's books inspire me to meditate. They give me peace of mind.

The hunger to win must not die... The appetite has to remain big.

Sourav is a great captain and we should be proud of such a leader.

I don't look into negative things. Go past mistakes and look forward.

If I can teach cricket overseas, why wouldn't I do so in my own country?
