I delayed my father's funeral because of cricket.
I don't think there is anything wrong in earning money from the sport you love. If you work hard and get benefits from it, there is no harm. The day you feel that you are not working hard and are only looking at the benefits, that's where the problem is.
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.
Probably because I'm from a middle class family, I have that nature in me that I don't get too excited with big things.
Everyone loves a win in India. No one wants to lose a match. It is the cricketer who absorbs all the pressure.
I am very happy playing and showing off my talent on the cricket field and have no plans to enter Bollywood.
I want to elongate my cricketing career as a consistent player. I have personal goals I would like to achieve someday.
