What is important for me is playing cricket and not thinking about how my Test career is shaping up. I am not into future planning and all. I am concerned about my present and not the future.

I never have issues in handling the fame. I was in a boarding school, as I am from a middle-class family. We didn't have a lot of money, so we all learned to respect money and understood its real value.

I am not brand conscious. I wear what suits me.

I enjoy snorkelling, water sports and paragliding.

I love Canada. It's a wonderful political act of faith that exists atop a breathtakingly beautiful land.

I desire an special interest in your prayers that my faith fail not in the day of adversity.

God is much in the difficult home problems as in the times of quiet and prayer.

A little prosperity and peace, or even a turn slightly for the better, can bring us feelings of self-sufficiency. We can feel quickly that we are in control of our lives, that the change for the better is our own doing, not that of a God who communicates to us through the still, small voice of the Spirit.
