I think Test cricket is the ultimate form of cricket.

My job is to perform, enjoy cricket and thank God for whatever he has given me.

At the international level, one has to keep working hard and develop new skills. International cricket is all about improving yourself.

For a batsman, scoring runs abroad is always a challenge.

For me, fielding is everything - it is a passion that comes from within. You can get a bad ball while you bat, and your bowling may not always be up there, but you are completely in control of how well you field.

I will never date an actor or a model. My family will never accept her. We are a middle class family, and an actress will never be able to gel with us.

Celebration is big for me. From my younger days, when I used to win mementos while playing basketball, I have always believed in sharing my success. It has to be there. It lifts the energy levels of the entire side if you are positive and vocal when a wicket falls.
