incidents comment isolated
Sure, you can do without the hard personal comments, but it doesn't really happen apart from a few isolated incidents.
bowling shane
It's far more daunting than bowling to Ricky Ponting or facing Shane Warne
play way pressure
There are times when I have felt the pressure, but at the moment I play cricket the only way I can.
home mean sheep
That means I can drive a flock of sheep through the town centre, drink for free in no less than 64 pubs and get a lift home with the police when I become inebriated. What more could you want?
trying helping temper
I can lose my temper from time to time, but I try not to lose it on the pitch because it can't help.
thinking trying want
When you bowl at him you are not just trying to get him out, you are trying to impress him. "I want him to walk off thinking 'that Flintoff, he's all right isn't he?" I feel privileged to have played against him.
games comment
It's usually the funny comments which are the better ones - and they are good for the game.
morning thinking bad-mood
I like to think I'm calm. Sometimes I have arrived at the ground in the morning in a bad mood - you're not always going to be in the best of moods are you? - but by the time you get into the ground and you have a brew then it's normally fine.
predictions
I'm not keen on making predictions.
media fit get-fit
Whatever was written in the media was beyond me. The only thing I could control was getting fit.
cracks machines bats
A lot of the lads have a bat for the nets, a bat for facing the bowling machine and a separate bat for the match. I'll just crack on with a bat until it breaks - then crack on with another one.
looks wells realising
I'm not really someone who looks forward to the gym. But I realise it's something that I have to do to perform well on the pitch.
clothes necks excuse
One of the things I've always thought is a drag in so many period adaptations is that they are always buttoned up to the neck in so many clothes all the time. I'm always looking for excuses to get them out of their clothes.
drama tvs needs
Novels often have leisurely openings; a TV drama needs an arresting opening.
