I was never any good at cricket thought I love it as a, as a sort of mystery.

My aim is to play Test matches. For me, there is a different feel of Test cricket as it tests your character. You come to know about your mental toughness, and most importantly, there is another level of satisfaction as a player.

Since childhood, I have been a cricket fanatic.

To me, cricket is a simple game. Keep it simple and just go out and play.

I have played cricket on my own terms.

I do love cricket - it's so very English.

Cricket is my first love.

I always wanted to play cricket, and I have played competitive cricket to a fairly good level. I remember that my father used to come and watch me play. He used to love watching me play.

I don't study cricket too much. Whatever I have learned or experienced is through cricket I've played on the field, and whatever little I have watched.
