Stuart Broad

When you're young you're influenced by the best teams. So a lot of my favourite cricketers were Australian.

As a sportsman you are always testing your limits.

I like to take wickets and see wickets and chances and I think in T20 cricket you have to risk a boundary to take a wicket.

Part and parcel of being an international sportsman is dealing with fair or unfair criticism and also when you are on the back pages when you are performing.

People talk about cricket being an individual game but I really don't agree; everything is done in a partnership.

I am more aggressive than others, being a sportsman.

I definitely have my dad's competitive streak in me.

I've not gone out of my way to live a celebrity lifestyle, which I could easily have done.

I'm aware how special an achievement 100 caps is because of the players that have come before me and the amount they've given to English cricket.

Shaun Pollock is actually the best role model for me as a very good attritional bowler.

Without the players, there's no game.

You get judged on your results.
