A Quote by Gautam Gambhir

I think a captain is someone who captains on the cricket field but, most of the leadership that happens is off the cricket field. It's very easy to captain people on the cricket field, but if you can start leading them off the cricket field, and show them that trust, what you have in them.

One of my theories is to be captain on the field and off the field, you need to totally enjoy each other's company. I don't like discussing cricket off the field.

MS Dhoni

The more cricket you play in your head, the less you perform on the field. So let cricket, the sport, be on the field.

K. L. Rahul

I don't really focus on these things - on what tags are given to me or what people think of me off the field - stuff like that. My main focus is always to do well on the field for the Indian cricket team. When people say good things about me off the field, I am more than happy to accept them.

Virat Kohli

If a youngster can come up to me and share his problems or share his experiences or share something that he does off cricket, that can obviously help you build a better relation with one-on-one, and that can help you captain him on the cricket field.

Gautam Gambhir

That happens on a cricket field. People have a go at each other. That's fair, that's fine. It's called Test cricket. It's not a day in the park.

Sourav Ganguly

I believe my actual job is that of a mentor. I don't just talk about bowling. I discuss batting, I discuss fielding, I discuss team selection, talking to every boy individually on and off the field, giving them confidence and if they are struggling with their cricket, talking to them about their cricket.

Wasim Akram

Sourav was a great cricketer, he performed on the field, would like to see him perform off the field as a cricket administrator.

Anurag Thakur

It's quite strange, because off the field I'm quite shy, quiet, prefer to watch a bit of TV at home, but get me on the cricket field I like it all kicking off.

Stuart Broad

I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.

Usain Bolt

I have been massively proud to have played for and, indeed, captain my country on the cricket field.

AB de Villiers

I think that a leader is someone that needs to make an impact on, off the cricket field and in their lives as well.

Gautam Gambhir

It's all you hear on a cricket field - 'Knock his head off, knock his head off.' Cricket has gone too far. It shouldn't be posturing, abusing.

Jonathan Agnew

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.
