“I guess they have had 16 years when they haven’t even been close in an Ashes series but we have found some sections of the crowd to be scathing and harsh. That has not been overly enjoyable. We have seen a pretty ugly side in some supporters.”

And I can say that I’ll pay to watch MS Dhoni bat.

The best compliment for me is when someone says they’ll pay to watch me play, And I can say that I’ll pay to watch MS Dhoni bat. MS is not the next Gilchrist. He’s the first MS Dhoni

I have done all the work I usually do and a little bit more, so hopefully that will produce results in at least one of the last two Tests.

There was a little element of feeling like a cow.

It is difficult batting in artificial light with a red ball but it’s a horrible task for umpires to make a judgment.

It was an amazing win and testament to the character of the team. From the position we were in it must be one of the greatest comebacks.

I would be comfortable to bat anywhere.

I’m confused. Really, really confused.

I’ll pay to watch MS Dhoni Bat. Dhoni is not the next Gilchrist. He’s the first MS Dhoni.

I now know what Sachin Tendulkar feels every time he bats in India.

Whilst there’s a competition still on we’re still a chance.

We are in danger of destroying ourselves by our greed and stupidity. We cannot remain looking inwards at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet.

Never follow the crowd, go where it’s empty.

To lead an orchestra, you must turn your back on the crowd.

Nature reaches out to us with welcoming arms, and bids us enjoy her beauty; but we dread her silence and rush into the crowded cities, there to huddle like sheep fleeing from a ferocious wolf.

Set fire to the mic and ignite the crowd.

Only the self-sufficient stand alone – most people follow the crowd and imitate.

Don’t join an easy crowd; you won’t grow.

In every crowd are certain persons who seem just like the rest, yet they bear amazing messages.
