Rahul Dravid being known as 'The Wall' is pretty much spot on. 'The fortress' could also describe Rahul. Because once, Dravid was set, you needed the bowling equivalent of a dozen cannon firing all at once to blast him down.

To me, cricket is a simple game. Keep it simple and just go out and play.

I'm proud of what I've achieved in cricket, as once I didn't think I was good enough.

The public want to see people play an exciting brand of cricket.

You can't afford to live your life with regrets.

I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player.
