We want to see him bat up the order. In the last few games he did not get a chance to bat.
We've won the series, but it doesn't mean we'll take the remaining three matches lightly.
Our lower order batted very well after the top half didn't contribute much.
I think Pakistan is more under pressure than us because they are playing at home.
Not a single partnership clicked. That was the main reason why we did not score as much as we would have wanted.
It was tough captaining the team as I'd missed the last Test match due to fever, but I'm delighted at leading India to a win.
After reaching the hotel we realized it was no use going to the ground.
I don't think so! I have played better than many players who have played for India in the recent past. I have only one century while playing in the middle order as compared to nine as an opening batsman. By any standard, it's a good performance.
We are worried about the lack of runs from our openers and the top order and are working to correct this.
Today if I'm a cricketer it is because of Sachin Tendulkar. Else, I would never have picked up a bat. He's the reason behind me playing cricket
If I see MS Dhoni coming to bat at number 4, I will be the happiest person on earth
Nothing is more thrilling than winning a match for your team.
Cricket is not like a government job where retirement age is fixed at A cricketer can retire at 30 or 60; it's up to the player.
Because I knew I had got success at Ranji level, I was confident I would get some success in international cricket too.
