PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) is doing an unbelievable job in trying to resurrect international cricket. I just hope the World XI tour goes ahead and that will almost be the curtain raiser to, hopefully, get some international cricket back.

Mickey Arthur

I am a kid who played university cricket, so to be around international cricket is a blessing.

Harsha Bhogle

Obviously, international cricket is the main cricket you want to play, especially Test cricket.

AB de Villiers

If you look at cricket per se, if you didn't have T20 cricket, Test cricket will die. People don't realise. You just play Test cricket, and don't play one-day cricket and T20 cricket, and speak to me after 10 years. The economics will just not allow the game to survive.

Ravi Shastri

My biggest concern is that Test cricket and Twenty20 cricket are competing too much. They should be complementing each other and the more they clash the more damaging it will be for cricket.

Andrew Strauss

International cricket and Test cricket in particular is hard and you are going to get injuries but, if you've got a strong pool of players to pick from who can all come in and do a job, well that can only be a good thing for English cricket.

Stuart Broad

Lot of people think I have played international cricket for 13 years, but I started at six years of age, so it is 28 years of cricket.

Michael Clarke

In one sense, what happens for me outside of cricket gives me that break - the farming means I have a really different life outside of cricket; it's not just cricket, cricket, cricket for 12 months of the year.

Alastair Cook

It's about being true to who you are as a person. For example, I'm not going to shy away from an opinion because I have played cricket, whereas other women who haven't played cricket might be more journalistic about their approach.

Isa Guha

There are fans of Twenty20 cricket, and we need to ensure that we give them the cricket they want to see. We need to keep Test cricket alive, because there is a section of fans who love and worship Test cricket and have basically helped this game grow, and they are as important as anybody else.

Rahul Dravid

I think 'A' sides are extremely important, as close as you can get to international cricket. You are often playing against internationals from different countries and it definitely bridges the gap between our domestic game and international cricket.

Baseball is like cricket, and I grew up in a country where they had cricket. So I understand cricket, soccer and basketball. I played basketball at the club level and a little bit in college, so that's why I'm a basketball fanatic.

Patrick Soon-Shiong

When I was growing up, I played a lot of ten- and 12-over games, and I would bat in the middle order. I got only ten-odd balls to face, and I tried to score as much as I could. I applied the same approach in domestic and international cricket, and people were appreciating my strike rate being more than 80 or 90 in Test cricket.

Virender Sehwag

I have already established myself as Stuart Binny. I want to be known as a good player who served Karnataka cricket for more than a decade and also played Test cricket for country.
