We've just got to be careful - with all sports, let alone cricket - I think there's so much emphasis on doing the right thing all the time, but I think the public want to be entertained when they come to watch sport.
We played well in Kenya. We didn't lose a game and we bowled Pakistan out for 100 twice. We don't need to change much from that for this tournament.
The public want to see people play an exciting brand of cricket.
The IPL is just pure, intense. You don't need all the other stuff. I don't believe in coaches in international cricket.
I think when two people get together, their past is their past. Their reputations are reputations. You can only take someone the way you find them... on face value. I think that was how we were both, the way we were.
I'm proud of what I've achieved in cricket, as once I didn't think I was good enough.
I have always tried to move on from disappointments as fast as I can.
I'll be going to bed having nightmares of Sachin just running down the wicket and belting me back over the head for six. He was unstoppable. I don't think anyone, apart from Don Bradman, is in the same class as Sachin Tendulkar. He is just an amazing player.
Four hundred wickets is 400 more than I thought I'd get.
I think we have got the wood on South Africa, but that does not mean they are not a good team. They intimidate a lot of teams but we intimidate them. There is no disrespect for South Africa; they are a very good team.
Being in love with somebody is a wonderful feeling.
There are no secrets about England - they are searching for positives.
I can 100 percent tell you that I have not gone under the surgeon's knife or had a facelift.
There are a lot more tabloids in England that like to report other things in your life, some of which are true and some of which are exaggerated and untrue. There have been stories where people claim to have seen me in one place and I wasnt even in that city then. The Aussie press is more judgmental and moralistic.
