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

You have to see that cricket is developing as a sport because what's very important is you want cricket to be a global sport when it comes to participation.

MS Dhoni

Isn't cricket supposed to be a team sport? I feel people should decide first whether cricket is a team game or an individual sport.

Sachin Tendulkar

I don't think there is a need to treat matches with India like a matter of life and death. We need to take cricket as cricket.

Shahid Afridi

I treat golf as a sport. I let other people treat it like a hobby.

Tiger Woods

My favourite sport's cricket and one of the key things in cricket is to know when to declare.

Andrew Neil

When I came to America in 1978, I was a huge sports fan - the problem was, my sport was cricket. Shockingly enough, no one wanted to talk cricket with me!

Indra Nooyi

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

To me, it doesn't matter how good you are. Sport is all about playing and competing. Whatever you do in cricket and in sport, enjoy it, be positive and try to win.

Ian Botham

We laud the women's cricket team when they win accolades, but when a regular girl enjoys watching cricket, the men look at her and start testing her knowledge about the sport.

Nushrat Bharucha

I've always found the secret is to stay fit and treat sport as a profession. I chose sport as a passion.

Eliud Kipchoge

For any sport to be sustainable, it cannot survive on government or corporate grants alone. The sporting ecosystem needs more investments from businesses, and businesses need to see the returns from their investment in sport. Cricket has achieved that distinction, but I feel a country of a billion-plus people cannot remain captive to one sport.

Anand Mahindra

I think if you're writing about cricket, you're obviously writing about power, because cricket is such a loaded sport, much more so than soccer.

Joseph O'Neill

It is not true that the English invented cricket as a way of making all other human endeavors look interesting and lively; that was merely an unintended side effect... It is the only sport that incorporates meal breaks. It is the only sport that shares its name with an insect. It is the only sport in which spectators burn as many calories as players - more if they are moderately restless.

Bill Bryson

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.

Alastair Cook

We have been deformed by educational and religious institutions that treat us as members of an audience instead of actors in a drama, so we become adults who treat democracy as a spectator sport.

Parker Palmer
