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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
I believe cricket is big part of this country's culture, like all sports but cricket is the most dominant in our country. It is in our blood and even if you don't sit and watch it, the sound of cricket represents summer.
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.
My favourite sport's cricket and one of the key things in cricket is to know when to declare.
I am an ardent cricket fan, and I have seen the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium matches on TV.
For too long now, cricket has got all the attention and money. Look at how much financial help cricket gets from the sports federations.
I'm a big sports fan. Football. Cricket.
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.
Obviously, international cricket is the main cricket you want to play, especially Test cricket.
The more cricket you play in your head, the less you perform on the field. So let cricket, the sport, be on the field.
If you are going to raise youngsters for Test cricket that don't have the experience, you can't stick them into T20. You've got to teach them first how to play Test cricket, and when they're good enough for Test cricket and if they want to play both formats, then they can.
As a kid in New Zealand, you play cricket in summer and rugby in winter. I played cricket and hockey. Not rugby. I wasn't brawny enough for it. Or silly enough, perhaps.
I always wanted to play Test cricket, but people have only seen me in first-class cricket. I was always confident that, whenever I get a chance, I would be able to do well.
