As I played a lot of tennis ball cricket, I used to watch Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis a lot.

Jasprit Bumrah

If you ask me the best bowler, then Wasim Akram was the best bowler because he had a lot of variety. Even when you were batting on 100 or 150, you're not very sure... He could still get you out. That was his forte.

Mohammad Azharuddin

Wasim Akram is a splendid human being and a thorough gentleman.

Sushmita Sen

I have high expectations from Babar Azam and Imam-ul Haq.

Mickey Arthur

You don't need a helmet facing Waqar [Younis] so much as a steel toe cap

Simon Hughes

General Zia-ul-Haq, a dictator and unscrupulous political actor, used Islam as a pretext for waging war in Afghanistan and adopting an aggressive stance towards India. By advancing a more orthodox version of Islam, he was able to hold on to a repressive regime and quell any opposition.

Asma Jahangir

Wasim and Waqar were amazing bowlers. I would put them right up there with the best in the world.

Sachin Tendulkar

I've been to a lot of places to play cricket, but cricket and training get in the way! In India, all you see is the hotel and the cricket ground.

Andrew Flintoff

I was attracted to cricket at a very young age. My father's elder brother Akram Siddiq saw the passion for cricket in me, so he pushed me, and then another uncle - father of Kamran, Umar, and Adnan Akmal - advised my father to work hard on me, as he thought that I will make it big in cricket.

Babar Azam

I think that's kind of nice that there's this kind of inherent respect between runners who do a marathon. People respect somebody who has done it, and I will do anything to get some respect because I don't get a lot respect in my life.

Paul Sparks

Be very professional because it will get you a lot further. You have to treat people with the same respect whether they're signing your checks or cleaning up after you.

Raven-Symone

Respect is having respect for the people you play with and against, and respect for the shirt. Unity is about sticking together but also uniting the country. That was always the bigger cause for us, not just the cricket.

Moeen Ali

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.

Rishabh Pant

Whatever sphere of the human mind you may select for your special study, whether it be language, or religion, or mythology, or philosophy, whether it be laws or customs, primitive art or primitive science, everywhere, you have to go to India, whether you like it or not, because some of the most valuable and most instructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India, and in India only.
