As professional cricketers, we have to ensure that we are battle-ready all the time.

If you're successful, it's important to enjoy it! I love shopping for clothes, branded clothes. I love shopping in England, Dubai. I like to travel whenever I can.

I try to do better than what I have before.

My job is to perform, enjoy cricket and thank God for whatever he has given me.

I don't compete with others, but compete with myself.

I am not brand conscious. I wear what suits me.

I will never date an actor or a model. My family will never accept her. We are a middle class family, and an actress will never be able to gel with us.

At the international level, one has to keep working hard and develop new skills. International cricket is all about improving yourself.

I would never date or marry an actress. I will marry the girl of my mom's choice.

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.

The future is uncertain, and therefore I can't predict it.

Beneath the rust and grime which dulls the shine of our weathered hearts, joy patiently waits to be rediscovered

God's will is your deepest desires.

How beautifully the leaves grow old. How full of light and colour are their last days.

But all my people, the Palestinians and the Arabs, wish me long life and freedom.

Who, or why, or which, or what, Is the Akhond of Swat?

I'm not insane. This is very simple, very straightforward. Provided he doesn't kill me, its foolproof.

I want to be a Christian like Christ - loving and accepting of other people.

When I'm in New York my boyfriend buys me sneakers and vice versa.

It's called 'reading'. It's how people install new software into their brains.

Lying makes a problem part of the future; truth makes a problem part of the past.
