The face of the team are the people who're playing on the cricket field. The team is not about one individual.

When I'm playing a team sport, it's not about one individual, it's about everyone, from me to the other 23 people who were there, to all the support staff who've worked very hard behind the scenes.

I think that a leader is someone that needs to make an impact on, off the cricket field and in their lives as well.

I think a captain is someone who captains on the cricket field but, most of the leadership that happens is off the cricket field. It's very easy to captain people on the cricket field, but if you can start leading them off the cricket field, and show them that trust, what you have in them.

It used to hurt me that people thought I didn't have the technique and the temperament to play Test cricket.

I think the only time I show my emotions and anger is on the cricket field; otherwise, I've mellowed down. And with age, I think, with age you always end up mellowing down.
