Out in the field, you haven't got anyone whispering into your ear saying all sorts of things, you've got to do it yourself.

In fact, as a spin bowler, you have to work on the batsman over after over.

When a cricketer gets hit in the private parts, he hopes the pain will go away very soon but the swelling doesn't!

The key thing was to learn the value of economy with words and to never insult the viewer by telling them what they can already see.

But I think the only thing that annoys me about that is if I suddenly find someone on commercial radio or something like that, mimicking my voice or actions and trying to promote a product and pretending it's me doing it.

My mantra is: put your brain into gear and if you can add to what's on the screen then do it, otherwise shut up.

The only thing that really annoys me is when all of a sudden you hear yourself on the radio advertising Smith's tyre shop or Blenkinsop's jam. They simply can't do that. And in Australia, occasionally I have to take action.
