“I’m not someone who sits at home and doesn’t like to go out, doesn’t like to watch movies. I like to live my life.”

I like to always lead from the front and set an example for whoever is playing with me or around me. I like taking responsibilities. That is my natural thing.

It was a personal decision for me to stand and say that cricket is all I have in life, there’s nothing I need to do other than cricket. If I want to achieve whatever I thought as a kid, I need to work hard and not let it go to waste.

I’m not a nerd, obviously. Do I look like one? I’m not someone who sits at home and doesn’t like to go out, doesn’t like to watch movies. I like to live my life.

Irrespective of whether you have talent or not, one has to work hard. Just being talented doesn’t mean anything; you can end up wasting it before you realize.

Delhi means everything to me. This city has given me everything, and I love it.

I want to elongate my cricketing career as a consistent player. I have personal goals I would like to achieve someday.

Focused & ready to go.

Tough game but happy to be on the winning side.

During my school days, I was doing a play, and my costume fell on the stage. I really wish it didn’t happen.

I always dreamt of holding the bat and winning games for India. That was my inspiration to take up cricket.

It undoubtedly feels nice when you are being appreciated and you get complimented by girls. Who doesn’t like that? Having said that, I don’t take it as any pressure.

Never at any point did I feel like missing a training session. I was very keen on improving as a cricketer and as an international player.

When you absolutely love what you do, everything just flows.

The more centuries that I am able to score, the happier I will be.

The bat is not a toy, it’s a weapon. It gives me everything in life, which helps me to do everything on the field.

Remember who you are and don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

Make the sky your home let your soul roam.

And the darkness felt suddenly like home again. Like a familiar place in the shadows where we used to meet.

The grace of being home is that i no longer have to waste energy on looking okay.

I take a piece of you with me everywhere I go, so my soul never feels alone, and my heart always feels at home.

Happiness is home made and so you’re willing to be happy.

I am not home for somebody else’s trauma.

If hearts are our homes, why do we let others break windows and throw stones?

Always be kind. After all most hearts are home to some kind of pain.
