“What you can never do on a slow pitch is bowl with any width. If you bowl straight it's almost impossible to get the ball away.”

“Test cricket might seem to be slow and ponderous at times, yet it is capable of conjuring great drama from nowhere.”

“Any decent coach can make more than enough money just doing three or four T20 leagues.”

“The truly great players have this advantage over the rest of the international elite, gifted though those others are: they have the ability to slow down a ball travelling at 90mph, to move before others can, to make the world adjust to their rhythm rather than the other way round.”

“You can't now do county and international cricket and have a life.”

“Where some see the Super Bowl, I see young black men risking their bodies, minds and futures for the joy and wealth of old white men.”

It has had a tremendous impact on my life since then.”

He hated you when you were on the field but he always shook your hand and was the epitome of 'play hard but play fair.'”
