I think you always need some luck when you score big runs.
I always want to be known as a good Test cricketer. I believe I have the ability to score big runs in the longer format. For that, I know I have to score heavily in whatever opportunities I get.
Being an impatient guy, even off the field, I would always look to score runs and score them quickly. Sometimes I panic if runs are not coming.
To win Test matches consistently you've got to take 20 wickets - yes, you've got to score runs but if you can't bowl a team out it doesn't matter how many runs you score.
Muller is a winner for Germany and expects to score big goals in big games, especially with his late runs from behind the striker.
The batsman does not always need to create big hits. He can hit a boundary, then pick up some singles and still gets nine runs. To avoid that, I need to plan in a way where he must look to hit wherever there is a fielder. That is what is called 'bowling to the field.'
My shot selection has to be good to score big runs.
Sometimes you need luck to score.
I know I have a lot of potential to score big runs. So, yeah, I am trying to take it game by game and see that I make it big.
My primary job is to score runs and make KKR win, and that's what I am trying to do. Rest, I don't think too much. That's how I have always played my game.
There's always luck involved in things, luck is involved in life; you're born a certain way, you're born in a certain location, you're born - country, there's always luck. And some people disagree that there's no such thing as luck, well, I'll take them on anytime you want.
Obviously after such a long gap, one itches to get back to the game and score big runs.
It is a great feeling of course to have scored so many runs, but that is what I play cricket for: to score lots of runs.
It always gives you pleasure when you score runs in Test cricket.
I've always felt that I need to be somebody in the middle of the lineup that's going to drive in runs and come up with big hits.
Luck or tragedy, some people get runs. Then of course there are those who divide it even, good and bad, but we never hear of them. Such a life doesn't demand attention. Only the people who get the good or bad runs.
Ah, the pleasure, the joy - a big news story that runs and runs, that is played down by some of our journalistic colleagues, saying 'it'll never happen', only to be confirmed by the Home Secretary.
