A Quote by Michael Clarke

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.

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

I have played 20 years of international cricket for Pakistan and not the PCB.

Shahid Afridi

I think, apart from Sir Garfield Sobers nobody else has played 20 years in international cricket and 20 years playing at the very highest level and to the very highest standard is an achievement beyond compare.

Sunil Gavaskar

Test cricket is not easy. If you haven't played first-class cricket for five years, then your muscles aren't used to bowling for that long.

Wasim Akram

I really enjoyed the period in which I played my cricket. I can look back now and wish I started 10 years later and played in the T20s. But I also wish I was born 10 years earlier so that I could have been part of the all-conquering West Indies team of that time.

Brian Lara

I've played a lot of cricket at Trent Bridge over the years, and have had a lot of fond memories there.

Joe Root

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

Harsha Bhogle

The more 'A' side cricket that can be played, it will keep the fringe of international cricket interested.

Dale Steyn

I love to talk about the drums and music. I started playing drums when I was probably six and played a lot until I was about ten or eleven years old. So, I guess five or six years where I played. I had a drum set at home, and I would just bang on it. I'd even go on the Internet and study basic beats and so forth.

Sean Berdy

To compare Olympic sport with cricket would not be fair. Years back, cricket was a sport only for the classes, and we will also have to make other sports masses from classes like cricket.

Gagan Narang

My dad doesn't know that much about cricket, but he has watched so many years of cricket.

Prithvi Shaw

From a spectator point of view, Test cricket is not important; people hardly watch Test cricket. But as a player, Tests are the real thing. You have to concentrate for five days. It's a lot of time, and not easy to do it day in and day out. If people have played 70-100 Tests, it's a lot of cricket, a lot of concentration and dedication.

Yuvraj Singh

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.
