“We don't cover too many draws in Test cricket and its great: it means ...” — Jonathan Agnew Quote

“We don't cover too many draws in Test cricket and its great: it means the cricket is more interesting, more exciting.”

“I love winding up Geoffrey Boycott.”

“This is Test cricket. Being positive is not far away from being reckless. For all that the sport has become more fast-flowing and entertaining, you still need batsmen whose first instinct is to be patient.”

“Stuart Broad's 400th Test wicket did not come the way he would have wanted - Tom Latham chipped the ball to mid-wicket - but he will take it nonetheless. It is a fantastic achievement.”

“I always wanted to be a professional cricketer, which meant I didn't work as much as I should have done at exams. But, happily, it came off.”

“A disciplined, patient, defensive period in a Test match is not old fashioned and boring - it's essential.”

“To me, it's like the difference between a pen and a paintbrush. Music draws from almost the identical place as art does, which really is that intangible - it's like you're pulling from the ether. I don't know where it comes from. Nobody really does. It sort of arrives when it wants to.”

“People love to be told stories, but it's the sugar that draws you into the theater.”

“Sometimes when your coach draws something up, you just kind of go with it.”

“I think the B-52's were a huge influence on Sleater-Kinney. The way that there'd be a really interesting guitar line that'd be really melodic and kind of simplistic, I really related to that. The sense of melody is really intense and fun. It's not just traditional song structures, but it's very melodic and draws you in, in kind of an immediate way.”

“The lesson that any thinking person draws from the Stewart saga is that when the government asks questions, run for your lawyer and don't say a word. Had Stewart kept her mouth shut, she'd be OK.”
