Cricketer

I have been captain in the past and I know what it takes to gel a team and get it going.

Good captains know the strengths and weaknesses of their teams and make decisions accordingly.

MS Dhoni is an asset in any team he plays for.

I look at Sachin and I see a great player, the kind of person that you would like to follow, but I have my reputation and am happy with the way my career has gone.

I don't think there is any 16-year-old who is going to embark on the sort of career that Sachin Tendulkar has had and walk away from the game at 40 with such great achievements. He's the Muhammad Ali and the Michael Jordan of cricket.

The reserve strength is very important in assessing a team's ability.

I remember the reason why did I start my golf. We had a four day game I was playing for Trinidad against the Leeward Islands. They had in their ranks Winston Benjamin, Curtly Ambrose and Kenneth Benjamin. To add to it, the track was a green top. The four day game lasted two days, so I had two days to play golf.

Alzarri Joseph is someone who I look at and say 'this guys has got potential, he's a wicket-taker.' He is someone who I'd like to see do well.

I believe cricket is a harder game. If at age six you started both sports you'd excel at golf more.

Having a decent place to live is fundamental for families.

I would like to be remembered as someone who came out there and tried to entertain.

Records are made to be broken. It's great when they are broken by attacking players.

Tendulkar has had the greatest cricket career of anyone who has ever played the game.

I think Rohit Sharma is an awesome player in all varieties of the game.

With all franchise cricket going on around in the world, the intensity of the game, sometimes is a burden.

I have never played a Test match at the Eden... It's such a big shame and disappointment.

When I wasn't doing well, I was too tough on myself but I truly tried to minimise it. So, I would always appreciate the fact that, things are not going to go well all the time.

Yes, golf is a weird game. I was capable of dealing with moving and bouncing cricket balls, but this little silly ball, sitting on the ground, gave me quite a headache early on for few years, but taught me how to be disciplined in controlling the ball.

I've played and I've been a student of the game.

After accepting the captaincy at the beginning of the 1998 season, I immediately set high but attainable goals for the West Indies cricket team and myself.
