I think it's related. Batting and captaincy or bowling or captaincy. If you are doing your job well as a batsman, then the same confidence comes in to what you do as a leader.

Wasim Akram

When I first became captain the job was new and refreshing and didn't affect my batting. I was still in the same mental pattern I had had for 10 years; batting came first and captaincy fitted in with that.

Nasser Hussain

My England captaincy was not the England captaincy I wanted, that's what will live with me for a long time.

Kevin Pietersen

It was a bit of a surprise when the national captaincy came my way.

AB de Villiers

It is one thing being scrutinised for playing a bad shot as a batsman or bowling a bad spell as a bowler, but the captaincy adds an extra dimension. The criticism is slightly harder to take.

Andrew Flintoff

Yes, there are dangerous batsmen like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina. Yes, the bowling is striking form just at the right time but for me MS Dhoni's captaincy is India's biggest strength in this World Cup.

Sourav Ganguly

Captaincy did not change me as a player whatsoever, when I had the ball in my hand, I operated in the same manner like I always do.

Ben Stokes

Captaincy is a confidence game. When the team is winning and your decisions go well that breeds confidence.

Andrew Strauss

I think I am capable of captaincy.

Manuel Neuer

I'm ready to accept the pressures of captaincy.

Inzamam-ul-Haq

I don't think it matters too much if you are batting or bowling first on this pitch. The wicket remains the same throughout the 40 overs. There is only the dew factor that probably comes in the second innings.

Prithvi Shaw

When I turned 17, that's when it all got a bit too much. I decided to stop doing pretty much everything. I quit football. I wouldn't get up in the morning. I wouldn't go out of my room. I was very depressed.
