Alastair Cook Quotations

Sometimes opportunities come and you've got to try and take it.

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be heading to Pakistan,

It's the adrenalin that gets you through. It was a great feeling when that ball went through for four.

He had an outstanding game with two fifties and four wickets to round off a week in which he became a father again.

He has been fantastic. It is great, he every now and then takes you aside and gives you little bits of advice.

It was a great feeling to see that ball go through for four, it was unbelievable. It might be a cliche, but this really is a dream come true.

Wicket has not spun as we thought it would. But the signs are there (that it will turn tomorrow). If you bowl in the rough there's turn.

He is a fantastic captain to have and we all have just been following him.

If we create good facilities, then youngsters will want to play cricket at their local clubs.

It's unfortunate for Vaughan to be injured but a great opportunity for me and I will make the most of it.
