Whatever was written in the media was beyond me. The only thing I could control was getting fit.
It's a big part of my life, listening to music and watching TV.
If I'm playing well I'll get through a bat in three weeks. I batter them.
It's usually the funny comments which are the better ones - and they are good for the game.
I'm not really superstitious - I don't have any lucky charms or a mascot.
I'm not someone who needs to bat and bat to be in form.
