I have played quite a few Test matches in the back garden with my two brothers.
When I was a kid, my first dream was to play Test matches, and the second one was to play 100 Test matches because there are very few people who have played 100 Tests for India.
Experience tells us that few matches are won on the back of one or two good sessions of play. To win a Test match most teams have to win and outplay the opposition for extended periods of time.
I do love the Ashes and some of my best memories are from Ashes cricket. I just wish we'd played a few more Test matches.
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 firmly believe Test series should never be two Test matches, three is enough.
I love the multi-format series. Within it they've found a way to retain Test matches and England v Australia in the Test arena, they were always my favourite matches to play in.
It's something that I've wanted to do for a while, play Big Bash. Unfortunately representing the Proteas for the bulk of my career over Christmas time we've always got Test matches on, the Boxing Day and New Year's Test matches. So I haven't been available.
I can think of matches I played where I played one or two points perfectly, and that gave me a thrill.
It's surreal to think that no one has played as many Test matches for England. I suppose it's a credit to my longevity.
I had a test on my kidneys a few weeks back and found out I have two.
I played softball for a few years growing up. Both my brothers played baseball.
I've played in Test matches before after injury without first playing a county game or warm-up of some sort.
If you're going to play in all three formats, you can't play all the games. You probably play two Test matches, miss the last one and take some time off and maybe come back for the second ODI or second T20.
I have only played in two first-class matches with a pink ball and both of them were over inside two days.
They would go back and listen to my matches, and two days later, I'd be fined. Because no one heard it while it was being played, but they heard it on some mic behind the court. Is that the way it should be? I don't think so.
I've watched quite a few matches to understand English football.
