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.

Cricket is not everything, not by any means, but it is a large part of who I am. Therefore, I want to play in all formats of the game and to play as much as possible because, before long, it will be over.

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.

I have learned in fashion to be a little savage.

I am always the one who is responsible for anything bad that happens in Indian cricket. Everything that happens is because of me.

Cricketers have a very short shelf life. On an average, you make money through cricket for five years, but you need to survive for sixty years.
