When I first started playing cricket for England, there was hardly any coverage.
I would have enjoyed playing some county cricket and learning my art that way, but I never had any ambitions at all to play for England, that's for sure.
At the start, when I started playing first-class cricket, I was a flamboyant player and I never used to take responsibility.
When I first started playing international cricket, people around me started telling me what was being said. And you're never as good as anybody says you are. I try to stay quite logical about things.
I was a flamboyant player when I started playing First Class cricket. I used to just back my instincts and go with the flow.
I have so far enjoyed my preparation with red ball cricket. The Duke ball swings a lot when you're here in England, and initially, when I started playing here with India A, I realized that the swing will come a lot into play in these conditions.
As a child I played cricket as a hobby. Once you started playing for your school, you became more ambitious. You reckoned you could play for the state. Then you started to think about the country. But it happened so quickly for me, I started playing for the school at 13, for Bombay at 17, and at 18 I was in the Indian side.
I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.
I never had any lessons. When I first started playing I used to read music. I was very interested in music. But when I started playing in groups I did a silly thing and dropped it. It's great if you can write things down.
I played for England at cricket and football. Playing at Wembley in front of 60,000 people seemed better than playing at Cirencester in front of my family and friends.
When I was 15, I started playing first class cricket and always dreamt of being a Test cricketer, wanted to do something for the country, married in 1995, have 2 kids it's been great.
That's why every cricketer wants to play international cricket. First of all you're playing for your country, secondly there's a lot of media attention and thirdly, for India, there is so much support for us, especially in England. So you know what you are doing is important, and that motivates you, helps you get going.
I started playing cricket with my brother in our back garden when I was eight. The garden was long and thin, so it was perfect for us to play cricket in. We'd use a crate as the wicket. We broke quite a few windows.
I love sleeping and to inculcate the habit of early rising, my dad forced me to take up a sport. That was the only reason I started playing cricket in the first place. And thereafter it continued.
I'm looking forward to the new challenge that playing T20 cricket in England will bring.
Physically and mentally, it's quite hard. But I'm playing cricket for England. It's what I dream about doing.
Playing cricket in England is what I am looking forward to, and I would love to bowl at Lord's again.
