It has been very good here, but the World Cup game was different. It had a different significance to it.
Before coming here I had a minor back problem and I thought whenever I play Pakistan I get a back problem.
I have never thought where I will go, or forced any targets on myself.
There are over 200 million illiterate women in India. This low literacy negatively impacts not just their lives but also their families' and the country's economic development. A girl's lack of education also has a negative impact on the health and well-being of her children.
It doesn't always happen according to the way you have planned things out but I feel if you have covered most of the aspects, it does help out there in the middle.
I have never believed in comparisons, whether they are about different eras, players or coaches.
I always had a dream to play for India but I never let it put pressure on me.
I get 0.5 seconds to react to a ball, sometimes even less than that. I can't be thinking of what XYZ has said about me. I need to surrender myself to my natural instincts. My subconscious mind knows exactly what to do. It is trained to react. At home, my family doesn't discuss media coverage.
Beating Pakistan is always special because they are a tough team and we have a bit if a history regarding Pakistan.
My point of view is that when I am playing cricket I cannot think that this game is less or more important.
Lara's done very well recently and I never had any doubts about the abilities of Lara or Waugh.
New Zealand's Daniel Vettori is a very good bowler.
Hansie Cronje. Honestly. I got out to Hansie more than anyone.I never knew what to do with him
The International Cricket Calender shouldn't be so packed with action that it drives spectators away. Also there should be enough space between cricket events to help players recharge their batteries - not just physically but mentally too.
