I was an all-rounder but more of a batsman, maybe second-choice bowler.
Whether you're a batsman, bowler, or an all-rounder, fitness is tough if you follow your regimen religiously.
If you ask me, a batsman has very few opportunities as compared to a bowler. A bowler knows, if he gets hit for a six or a boundary, he has another delivery left to get back and take a wicket. For a batsman, one loose shot, and you are out. A bowler will always have 24 opportunities.
I have always seen myself more as a batsman than a bowler.
I know I'm a better bowler and create more chances if I get a batsman indecisive in defence.
Fast bowling is not an easy job. Especially if you are also a batsman as well as being a fast bowler, a fast bowler has to work harder than any other cricketer on his fitness.
You have to assume as a bowler that the batsman is going to hit every ball that he will face. That's where as a bowler you have to fancy your chances. If he is going to hit you, you can dismiss him. That is the confidence I give to my bowlers.
A bowler will always say it's a batsman's game.
As a bowler you need to keep an eye on what the batsman is trying to do till the last moment.
Green wickets. That is why everybody wants to be a fast bowler instead of being a spinner or a batsman.
The bowler wants to win the game. The batsman needs to bat well to get runs. No question about it.
A bowler should be allowed to point out to an umpire that a batsman is backing up, leaving the officials to watch what is going on.
I don't want to lose any of that passion for the game; as a bowler I need to have that real desire to get the batsman out and be in their face and be aggressive.
The more you get a batsman out the more it becomes psychological. A batsman starts thinking about it and making something of it in his head.
Each second is a second you can make a new choice, a better choice, a healthy choice, a present choice.
As a bowler, I was not scared of any batsman. They are not supposed to scare you; you have to scare them.
In fact, as a spin bowler, you have to work on the batsman over after over.
