My England captaincy was not the England captaincy I wanted, that's what will live with me for a long time.
The captaincy thing is brilliant, and I love it. But I didn't start off playing cricket to captain England. I wanted to score runs and stuff.
I've enjoyed the captaincy when I've done it at Middlesex and with England.
The England captaincy job, after 50-odd games, has found out what kind of leader I am in terms of a person. It's made me feel far more confident in terms of talking to a group in any situation. But it has taken me a long time to feel like I've been doing it naturally.
I've had a go at captaincy. Batting and bowling and captaincy turned out to be a bit too much.
Just because you're made England captain, it doesn't mean that you suddenly know everything about captaincy.
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.
Playing for England was always something I dreamt of and, of course, you then think of the captaincy. It was something I never thought I would be offered, especially after the way I started my career. But when it came along, I was very keen to have a go.
But obviously captaincy is a long process. It takes its toll as time goes on.
Test captaincy is a challenge but things will get easier with time.
I resigned from captaincy because I wanted the new captain to get enough time for preparing a team before the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.
Most people in England don't live in the North, and people are snobby in England, so they wanted a band from the South.
I'm sure the mantelpiece of captaincy will suit Wayne.
I will make a lot of mistakes and have to learn from them. It is part and parcel of the captaincy.
My mom being raised in England, her father always wanted to pursue the arts and wanted to have a stage career in England. According to her, he never had the courage to actually pursue it full-time. I think that my grandfather's parents thought that it wasn't a formidable job to have.
If i am ever given the captaincy, I will be very tight on my players to keep them in line.
A lot of people have lost interest in watching England play. To get motivated to watch international football, you need your country to be having some form of success and England haven't had any for a long time now.
