My point of view is that when I am playing cricket I cannot think that this game is less or more important.
Let us celebrate the spirit of sport through the National Games
Any team sport, there are certain team targets and those targets should always be in the forefront.
I hate losing and cricket being my first love, once I enter the ground it's a different zone altogether and that hunger for winning is always there.
New Zealand's Daniel Vettori is a very good bowler.
I have never believed in comparisons, whether they are about different eras, players or coaches.
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.
At least with me, the match starts much, much earlier than the actual match.
Before coming here I had a minor back problem and I thought whenever I play Pakistan I get a back problem.
It has been very good here, but the World Cup game was different. It had a different significance to it.
The Australian tour was good for us; it was ideal preparation for us.
When I was 15, I started playing first class cricket and always dreamt of being a Test cricketer, wanted to do something for the country, married in 1995, have 2 kids it's been great.
Shoaib Akhtar has been playing for 5, 6 years and is an experienced bowler.
Beating Pakistan is always special because they are a tough team and we have a bit if a history regarding Pakistan.
